Police records show that almost half of all motor

vehicle-related deaths involve alcohol. In most cases,

these deaths are the result of someone who was

drinking and driving. In recent years, more than

16,000 annual motor vehicle-related deaths have been

associated with the use of alcohol, with more than

300,000 people injured.

Many adults — by some estimates, nearly half the adult

population — choose never to drink alcohol, so they

never drive after drinking. For persons under 21,

it is against the law in every U.S. state to drink alcohol.

There are good medical, psychological and

developmental reasons for these laws.

The obvious way to eliminate the leading highway

safety problem is for people never to drink alcohol and

then drive. But what if people do? How much is “too

much” if someone plans to drive? It is a lot less

than many might think. Although it depends on each

person and situation, here is some general information

on the problem.

The Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) of someone

who is drinking depends upon four things:

• The amount of alcohol consumed

• The drinker’s body weight

• The amount of food that is consumed before and

during drinking

• The length of time it has taken the drinker to

consume the alcohol.
