Answers:
The safest thing to do is just call your local police dept. and have them dispatch a officer to your location and take a preliminary breath test PBT and see. You wouldn't get in trouble or anything and that way you would know if you are within your legal limits to operate your vehicle.

45 minutes to an hour and a half.

Long enough that it is easiest to just call a cab.

Drink a lot of water and wait at least four hours to drive, if you don't want to register an illegal blood alcohol level if you get pulled over. You will feel sober long before then, and for all intents be sober, but that doesn't mean they can't prosecute you.

Your body, regardless of size, can process alcohol at the rate of 1 ounce and hour, so you need to know how much alcohol was in the drink, this is providing your liver is healthy, and this can have NOTHING to do with whether or not you drink.

you should be allright after an hour or so, just make sure you don't have more than one.

never if you drink a hurricane then where will all that wind end up... I don't want to be a passenger in your car...

If you got that hurricane in new orleans, then you need to wait at least 6 hours after your first and ONLY drink to drive.

Lol.

I'm a bartender and depending on what you ate, greasy or a salad, and if the hurricane was made right, with two ounces of liquor, your safe to drive as soon as your done eating. I've had a dui, and since then, I test myself before I drive. Weighing 230 myself, without food, I can drink 3 beers and still be under the legal limit. That's like drinking one and a half hurricanes. Without food. Greasy food makes alcohol take longer to enter the bloodstream, therefore, keeping you sober longer. By the time you've gotten yourself home, the effects would be almost nil.

You shouldn't drink and drive!! Have another and call a cab.
