Not every driver knows for how long alcoholis excreted from the body. It is for this reason that many motorists lost their rights - in the blood there was still alcohol at the time of testing with an alcohol test. If in the distant 2003 the level of permissible alcohol content in the blood was 0.5 ppm, today it should not be more than 0.

The time of alcohol withdrawal in the blood directly depends on how much you drank, the strength of the drink and your body weight.

Usually the amount of alcohol consumed is measuredin portions. Each drink has a different portion. For example, 1 serving of vodka is equal to 50 grams; cognac - 100; and beer - half a liter. The less drinks you drink, the faster you can get behind the wheel.

When you consume 1 serving of vodka, cognac, beer,port wine, dry wine, you can again drive the car after 2 hours. If the number of servings is increased (2, 3, 4, 5 or more), then the time for the elimination of alcohol from the body will be 4, 6, 9, 11 and 13 hours, respectively. Such terms are reliable for people with a mass of 70-80 kilograms. In lean people the remnants of alcohol from the blood will go out much longer (up to 16 hours inclusive).
