Every 45 minutes, someone in the United States is killed from an alcohol-related automobile accident.* Don’t be the next casualty. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that 32% of all traffic deaths are cause by drunk driving. If you have taken a drink and intend to drive, you risk killing yourself in an alcohol-related automobile accident. Before you hit the road, check your blood alcohol content and see if you are legally intoxicated and potentially in danger of a car accident. Your BAC determines the concentration of alcohol in your blood, measured as mass per volume. Each state has its own legal limits concerning BACs—you need to know if you are in violation of your state’s laws. Avoid a DUI charge: Use the BAC Calculator to calculate your blood alcohol levels. You could just be saving lives—yours and those of others on the road.
