I have been told by alchohol experts that ONE beer or oz of booze in a cocktail is enough to bring blood alcohol content up to near .07 (just under the legal limit btw) so I would suggest that for a test of .15, it might be closer to 4 drinks in less than an hour would put you around that mark. 9 drinks would have most people blitzed and I am sure above .15 depending of course on how long the time of consumption is. A man will process approx. one drink per hour without getting much drunker than perhaps a couple drinks worth (usually two drinks is going to put an average person over the legal limit). Many people would not believe themselves too drunk to drive after one or two drinks but it is certainly risky business to have even one drink and then get caught driving. You might test 'positive' and the field sobriety test which is basically the police officer's observations (no scientific testing required btw) warrant an arrest for DUI for reasons other than too much alcohol in the blood. We don't actually know what the actual testing was or the results for certain as all of this has not even been presented in court. Errors can and do happen and 'facts' are not always reported correctly in the newspapers, etc.I'm not sure how much KW weighs, but an estimate of how many drinks it would take to get a BAC above .15 is a conservative 8 or 9 drinks. That's alot. That's not a whoops, I had one too many beers number but a I'm a binge drinker who has little regard for myself, my family, and the community number. And remember, this aint his first rodeo- it's how he rolls.
