I won't drive drunk but I do understand how fast alcohol is typically burned and my body is a little faster than the generally accepted number.
One drink = .02
One drink is burned off each hour.
.08 is the legal limit in wisconsin.
Lets say I drink 7 drinks over a 3 hour span.
I have .14 of alcohol in my body but I've also burned .06 over 3 hours so I should be right around .08. I will jump in the car and drive at that level. If the cops pull me over, I'll hope the don't notice I've been drinking if they do make me blow, I'll blow below a .08 anyway because my body is slightly faster than .02 per hour anyway. I hope that made sense. That's what I do.
One time, I was at a couple bars with a friend. WE were out from 10 till 2. I think I had 8 beers over 4 hours. My friend insisted I had 8 beers and was over the limit. I explained to him the equation that I learned at DARE and he was like whatever, your not driving. I was like "fuk U, I'm driving". Anyway.....8 * .02 = .16 but you then subtract .02 * 4 (hours) = .08.........So, .16 (consumed) - .08 (burned) = .08 (legal limit in wisconsin). I saw a cop outside the bar so I asked if I could blow a breathalizer to insure I was OK to drive. I was at .06. I was legal and I drove. I didn't really need to prove it to myself. For some reason I just trusted teh damn equation but now my frined belives in taht equation and uses it too. Just make sure you know how many shots are in each drink. If your getting doubles, don't make the mistake of calling it 1. I keep track of everything I put into my body anyway sot this works for me. If you just drink and don't count, it won't work...
like I said, over 3 hours you can drink 7 beers and who the hell needs mroe than that? If you're a small woman or have a bad liver it might not work for you, you might need to tweak it but for me it works masterfully.
