Question: What is the drink driving limit in the uk!?
Answers:
The drink drive limit in the UK is:

35 micrograms of alcohol in 100 millilitres of breath
OR
80 milligrams of alcohol per 100 millilitres of blood
OR
107 milligrams of alcohol per 100 millilitres of urine

How much you can drink safely without being over the limit depends on lots of factors such as your sex, weight, metabolism, health and when you last ate!. There is a good web site about drink driving laws in the UK at http://www!.drinkdriving!.org!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

36 milligrammes of alcohol in a breath specimen is the limit anything above that and you can be charged with excess alcohol!.

How many drinks does it take to be over depends on whether you have eaten and the speed of your metabolism!.
Generally people say two drinks is the legal limit, but if in doubt don't drink!. You could be the best driver in the world and someone else hits your car, if the police smell or suspect alcohol you are the one who is arrested and your insurance is invalid!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

As it's expressed as a percentage in your blood, many factors such as size, metabolism, and when you last ate all play a role!. There is no simple answer, such as 'one pint'!.

As a rule of thumb, though - one pint!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

The UK legal limit for drivers is 80 mg of alcohol per 100 ml of blood!. Thats roughly 2 pints of normal beer!.(for a man)Www@FoodAQ@Com

no drinking before driving!. That way you wont be over a limit!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

18 pints of strong lager
and 14 double vodkas!.

or 2 units!. :) Www@FoodAQ@Com

It should be zero!.

If you are drinking, simply don't drive!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

35mg per 100ml of bloodWww@FoodAQ@Com
