What's changed?

More accurate

The new national standard divides the detection methods of ethanol in blood and urine into two types, namely gas chromatography and electrochemical sensor method. The old national standard only stipulates gas chromatography as a laboratory testing method, but does not stipulate on-site testing methods. 2. More scientificThe new national standard adjusts the conversion factor between the amount of ethanol in blood and the amount of ethanol in breath from 2100 to 2300. This is based on the latest scientific research and statistics, which is more in line with the physical and metabolic characteristics of Chinese.

How much beer and liquor to drinkWill it meet the standard for drunk driving?

Judging by the change in the concentration of alcohol in the blood of the human body,After a normal person drinks a glass of 200ml of beer, the alcohol concentration can reach the drinking and driving standard of 20mg 100ml. IfDrunk driving standards of 3 taels of low-alcohol liquor or 2 bottles of beer, with an alcohol concentration of up to 80mg 100ml.

Of course, this number may vary slightly depending on the individual's physique.

How Long After Drinking Can I Drive?

Experts say that in general, about 10 minutes after drinking, alcohol will be absorbed by the body into the bloodstream, and it will reach its peak in 1 hour to 1 and a half hours. If you only drink a glass of beer or a glass of red wine, you need to metabolize it for at least 6 hours before you can drive againIf you drink more than 3 taels of low-alcohol liquor, you will need to drive for at least 20 to 24 hours, considering individual and environmental differences. The rate at which alcohol is metabolized in the human body depends on many factors, and in general, the degradation half-life of alcohol in the body is greater than 6 hours. Depending on individual differences, some may take more than 10 hours or even 20 hours to metabolize. Drunk driving will not be judged by the driver's self-perception or the length of time he has been drunk, but by the results of a professional test of blood alcohol concentration. in everyday lifeMany people have also encountered "wrongful things".Didn't drink, just ate some fruitwas found to be "drunk driving".What's going on?

Don't eat these fruits before driving

There is a risk of "being drunk driving".

According to the Shenzhen traffic police test, after eating several lychees in one go, a breath alcohol test was immediately carried out, and the result was 30mg 100ml, which did meet the standard of drunk driving, but after 10 minutes of re-testing, the "drunk driving" state was easily lifted, which is often called "fake drunk driving". In addition to lychees, there are also durian, jackfruit, longan, raisins, bayberry and other fruits with high sugar content may also be "drunk driving". These fruits have a high sugar content and a hard and closed skin, and after they are picked, photosynthesis decreases sharply, and the cells inside the fruit are hypoxic, and they undergo anaerobic respiration, converting their own sugars into ethanol (alcohol) and carbon dioxide. And the more mature, the longer it is placed, the higher the ethanol content, and the alcohol will remain in the mouth after eating. In addition to fruits, eating these foods before driving can also be "drunk driving".1. Fermented foods such as fermented bean curd and wine Daily fermented foods will have alcohol during the production process or after fermentation, and it is easy to "get hit" after eating.

Distiller's grains are a type of "culprit" that causes fake drunk driving, such as drunk crab, beer duck, sweet wine, wine-stuffed balls, tofu milk, etc. 2. Huoxiang Zhengqi Water and Cough Syrup After testing, the alcohol value will be very high after drinking Huoxiang Zhengqi Water. Similarly, cough syrups also contain alcohol. 3. Pastry snacks Many friends often eat small snacks such as tiramisu, egg yolk pie, Swiss rolls, and wine chocolates, in fact, it is easy to be detected drinking and driving after eating these things, because most of them contain alcohol. If you have eaten the above foods before driving, rest for 15-30 minutes before driving. Rinse your mouth with water before driving. If you are mistakenly charged for drunk driving due to eating the above food, you can ask the traffic police to retest it after 10 minutes, and the alcohol content in the mouth will naturally dissipate, and the blowing value will drop to the safe value or zero. A blood test may also be requested from the police to check the blood alcohol level. It is important to note that consuming alcoholic foods is not the same thing as drinking alcohol. In real drunk driving, the test after a few minutes will not only not reduce the alcohol value, but may even increase, so don't leave it to chance. A final reminder:Don't drink and don't drive, don't drink while drivingPlease keep it in mind!
