⚠ Do Not Use This Calculator to Make Driving Decisions
This tool provides a rough estimate only and cannot be used to determine if it is legal or safe for you to drive. Everyone metabolizes alcohol differently. Your actual BAC may be significantly higher or lower than this estimate due to: individual metabolism, food consumption, medications, hydration status, liver function, and other factors. Even at BAC levels below the legal limit of 0.08%, your driving ability may be impaired. If you have consumed any alcohol, the only safe choice is not to drive. Arrange a designated driver, use a rideshare service, or wait significantly longer than this calculator suggests.
