How long after drinking then can you drive??

[Looneytune]

Always wondering how long after drinking then can drive.

 

 

as a rule of thumb, its abt 1 standard drink per hour. for example, if u've been hanging out for abt 4 hrs, u shd not have drank more than 4 mugs of beer/4 glasses of wine/4 shots of liquor.

well even if u were to drink a big mouthful of whiskey, it ain't gonna metabolize so quickly. after failing breath analyzer test, the TP will bring u to a hosp to take ur blood. if someone had drank jus a mouthful, versus drinking over a protracted period, the blood test result will show the diff.

i noticed that when one drink..you tend to be more daring..speed and so forth..

 

so can be quite dangerous coz one may respond slower

[Tckrto]

LOL donno how true is it but i always heard pple tell me this story

[Looneytune]

its jus an urban legend lah..

[Looneytune]

its becos alcohol affects one's inhibition and makes one go for the thrill, which otherwise, wld be suppressed by one's rational mind when sober.

[Abbess]

that's very true

Sometimes when got BIG TIME party the previous night, the next day woke up still got alcohol in the system. So if kena caught how? Consider drink driving or drink, slept, drive?

This rule applies to mild drinkers. Those hiong ones will finish 1 jug within the 1st hr

[Vidz]

oh, so my friend kena for his alcohol in his breath - 35mg. LL. whatever it is, he kena charged.

 

sway.....

 

was he charged on the spot?

 

long long ago... after you failed breath test, they will sent you to station for blood test... they will only charge if you fail the blood test... the time diff can be a few hrs and some scraped thru...

 

so either technology has advanced or they bo-chup charge first...

I was stopped in a road block years ago after drinking. But luckily my friends in my car suggested to wind down all windows and smoke heavily at the same time.

 

Glad that I was through after the police checked my license and IC. May be I was lucky that he didn't smell the alcohol on me.

[Looneytune]

yep, it applies to normal social drinkers. but if the chap is a frequent drinker, he ain't gonna stop at 1 mug per hr. in few hrs, he'd down a couple of jugs. those fellas shd never drive cos they pose a real danger to others on the road.

 

if they get caught, they really deserve to get their license 'gantong'. tats why i support strict traffic laws agst drink-driving.

yalor..best is drink dun drive...drive dun drink..drink dun drive...and drive dun drink

 

i see, you dun like and i think you against drink and drive too huh

[Gilgamesh]

PLEASSEEEE !!! Do NOT Drink and Drive !

 

dont even THINK about it !

 

you may not feel drunk ... but sure as Hell ... yr reflexes and judgement is already impaired somewhat

 

want to hao lian yr car to chio bu ... take them to fancy restuarant

 

want to hao lian yr car at zouk ... use valet ...

else... you can be sure you wont have a car to hao lian on yr next trip liao .... bcos either yr license kenna gantong or yr car in scrapyard liao

 

my bro in law nearly broke my boh's rice bowl when he "premature scrapped" her car after some zouking ... dont "premature" send someone innocent to heaven

 

I fully agree on this. I tried once and scared the "brown mountain" out of me!!! Before I get my car, I can drink quite a lot - down 1 bottle of wine plus 1 jug of beer no problem. So thinking that 1 small glass of red wine is no prob for me (just 15% alcohol niah), I down one glass on dinner and after resting for 1 to 2 hours, started driving home. All I know is my normal reaction time actually increased by at least 2 folds!!! Nearly kena one car while doing a simple round about even though there are not much traffic Imagine what will happen if I down another glass of wine So now I stay clear of any alcohol if I need to drive after that.

[Jusnel]

all i can remember is he was tested for his breath in the road block. and then brought back to station for another test. i dunno whether blood or breath in station. and confirmed fail and kena charged.

 

Super LL........

drink stout or gordon blue (forgot spelling)...no hangover... in fact stout makes u energetic in the morning

 

Normally, alcoholic drinks that are transparent dun give u much hangover. The hangover is mainly caused by additives that are added to give the liquors the fragrance and taste. So, if u wanna get high but downa a headache next day, try something like Vodka. Most important of all, no matter what alchol u drink, drink plenty of water after that to reduce dehydration caused by alcohol. DON'T drink too much tea or coffee as these will make u "bung-jio" even more and cause more water to be lost from the body when it already needs it the most. Hot ginger drink is a good one also to help u wake up faster.

wan to drive to drink den dun need be bother abt rd block and sh*ts... even if drink, just keep ur coool, it wont kill ur license den.
