How does alcohol affect driving ability?

As the amount of alcohol in a person’s system increases, an individual’s central nervous system begins to function differently. Within a matter of minutes, alcohol is absorbed by your stomach and intestine and is then passed to the bloodstream where it remains until it is processed by the liver.

When pulled over for a drunk driving accident, your level of intoxication is usually measured by a Breathalyzer that measures blood alcohol concentration (BAC).

In every state, including Nevada, it is illegal to drive with a BAC of 0.08 percent or higher (unless you are operating a semi-truck, bus, Taxi, Uber or Lyft, the legal limit is 0.04 percent.)
