For a single standard drink to put them over the BAC limit, a person would have to weight less than 50 pounds. Legal standards of BAC are crazy if you think about them. A typical man would have to pound 3-4 drinks and then walk right out to his car immediately to exceed 0.08.

And many states will still fine you if they read anything above .02 if certain circumstances are met (eg kids in the car). A lot of legal advice in the subject goes simply don’t drive if you drink anything at all, because if you get pulled over you are coming out with some fine, or worse.
- jeffbee 3y agoWell, that does seem like the best advice. I don't see why people drink or drive, much less drink and drive.
- seanmcdirmid 3y agoIf you live in a place that doesn’t require driving, none of this is relevant at all. You can drink all you want in most of China, no one is worried about you driving because most aren’t (but some still do so the government had to crack down, though to be honest, I can’t tell the difference given the typical crazy driving style in Beijing).
