BAC Blood Alcohol Content Level Calculator

How to Use this Tool:

The calculator is extremely easy to use.  Simply enter your gender and weight, followed by the number of drinks you plan on having, what type of alcohol and over what period of time you plan on consuming these beverages.  Your blood alcohol concentration is then calculated.

Considerations before using the tool:

1. Although educative, the results of the blood alcohol calculator are merely a theoretical estimation, and web site users are reminded that the effects of alcohol can be greatly influenced by individual factors, such as age, fatigue, and hunger.

2. In some cases it may take up to 30 minutes after the last consumption of alcohol for an individual to reach the highest blood alcohol concentration. Additionally, a person’s ability to drive may become legally impaired at a point below the legal BAC limit.

3. The BAC calculator serves to make its users more aware of the damaging impact alcohol can have on a driver’s reaction time, reflexes and coordination. However, the results cannot in any case be used in opposition to the results obtained by trained officials, such as police officers trained in Breath Analysis.

The results of the test may prove eye-opening for some motorists who consider it acceptable to drive after having a few drinks, as the tool may help some people realize that the amount of alcohol they are consuming renders them legally impaired.
