Your Body Weight and Your BAC (Part B)

Why is .08 the legal BAC limit for Virginia DUI?

Studies show that at with a BAC level of .08 or above, people tend to experience mild euphoria, with side effects that include:

• Decreased inhibitions
• Diminution of attention
• Loss of judgment and control
• Motor sensory impairment
• Loss of efficiency in performance tests

Consequently, these effects will hinder your ability to safely operate a motor vehicle.

Can I use a BAC calculator to estimate how much I should drink?

There are various internet sites that allow you to estimate your tolerance with a BAC calculator. To calculate, the site will ask you information such as:

• The number of drinks you have had
• What you were drinking
• How much you weigh
• How many hours you have been drinking

By entering this information, the BAC calculator will estimate the amount of alcohol in your bloodstream, but this is not a good way to determine your ability to drive safely. Remember, these calculators can only estimate the outcome of a BAC reading, and if you choose to drive based on the information they provide, you may still find yourself arrested and charged with a Virginia DUI.

If you are charged with a Virginia DUI, one of the first things you should do is contact a Virginia DUI defense attorney.
