BAC Calculator

Most of us have heard of BAC levels, and what can happen if they’re too high and law enforcement gets involved, but not everyone understands how it works. Blood Alcohol Content refers to the percentage of alcohol in a person’s bloodstream. Blood Alcohol Content is measured within 30-70 minutes after consumption of alcohol. In other words, Blood alcohol content measures the amount of alcohol present in a person’s bloodstream. For example, if a person has a BAC of .10% that means that a person’s bloodstream contains one part of alcohol for every 1000 parts of blood.
Interested to know what your BAC might be? Use sr22insurancenow’s BAC calculator to estimate your BAC level, but don’t forget that everyone metabolises alcohol (beer, wine, liquor) differently. According to law, anyone who has a BAC over 0.08% is legally prohibited from driving.

No BAC calculator is 100% accurate because of the numerous factors and complexities relating to alcohol consumption by different individuals. Apart from gender, body weight and amount of alcohol consumed in a period, BAC of the person is also influenced by that person’s metabolism, health issues, history of alcohol consumption and the amount of food and other factors. The best that can be done is a rough estimation of the BAC level based on known inputs.
