RESPONSIBLE DRINKING
If you have teenagers, or in fact any adult, impress on them
the risks of driving while intoxicated. Statistics demonstrate
many fatal road accidents are caused by drunk drivers.
If you're having a party, provide food with drinks.
Offer non-alcoholic substitutes such as fruit, soft drinks.
2 drinks taken within an hour by a person 100 pounds produces a
.075 reading. One drink is equal to about 1.5 oz. of whisky or 2
bottles of beer. The rate of elimination for each hour after drinking
has stopped is 015. A 200 pound person, after 1 drink produces a
reading of .019, so you can see there is a big difference due to weight.
As a host it is your duty to make sure no one leaves your party impaired.
Have some one drive them home.
