Question: After drinking about 12 cans of beer last night, how long should one wait before driving today!?
Answers:
Well it takes 1hour to get 1 unit of alcohol out of the body so if the beer is say 2 units in a can it takes 2 hours to get that out!. So for twelve can at two units each it would take 24 hours to be clean of alcohol!. so to be under the legal limit it would proberly take between 15 and 20 hours!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

WHy would you drink 12 beers!. Unless you weigh 300lb+ 4-6 beers should do it!. If you have not thrown up, after 8hrs your blood alcohol should be under the legal limit, but your hang over might still impair you for a few more hours!.

You are not prettier, sexier, smarter, or cooler if you drink like an alcoholic!. When you get that drunk, you give the bad guys out there a chance to take advantage of you!.

Drink as much water as you can to clean your system before you go to bed!. It takes 1 hour for each beer to clear your bloodstream!. If you consumed 12 beers over a long period that will help!.

Depends on your tolerance, body weight, etc!.
I would not drive!. DUI's are very expensive!. If your still feeling the effects in the morning, don't driveWww@FoodAQ@Com

Give driving a miss today as although the alcohol will be dispersed by about 2pm, the toxins in your body will cause sluggishness for another 24 hours!. Go for a nice walk, drink plenty of water and relax for the rest of the day!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

It depends on many factors!. If you've had at least 8 hours break and eaten a meal then you should be ok!. My ex got suspended from driving the morning after a night on the booze so don't fall into the trap of thinking you'll be ok!.

Your body will get rid of one unit of alcohol per hour!. Each can will contain between 2 and 3 units, depending on the strength so you will need to allow somewhere between 24 and 36 hours before driving!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

it takes one hour for one unit of alcohol to leave ones system, so work it out for yourself, this is the best way to calculate when its safe to drive!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Each beer takes about an hour to process fully through your body!.


So I guess 12 hours from when you first started drinking!.


12 dude!? seriously!? Where's the next party at!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

beer takes 2 minutes to enter the blood stream and 1 hour to exit!. Thats for every beer!. So wait 12 hours!. 13 would be betterWww@FoodAQ@Com

The body processes 1 standard drink an hour, so wait 12 hours to clear all alcohol from the body!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

1 hr per unit [ 1 unit 1/2 pint of beer]
It will also depend on the strength of the beer!.
So no driving today!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
