Use of alcohol relates to many social problems, which include: traffic accidents, drownings, vandalism, assaults, murder, suicide, unwanted pregnancies and transmission of sexual disease. Alcohol kills approximately 200,000 people a year in the USA.

In addition to injury related to alcohol intake, there is work loss, and social disruption. Alcohol is one of the world's most popular drugs and the most common cause of disabling injuries and great financial loss.

Intoxication
Intoxication means "to poison yourself" and is the poisoning of the body with alcohol or other drugs which could cause stupefaction and/or excitement. Would you ever drive while intoxicated? Whether your answer is "yes" or "no", please read the following information.

If driving while intoxicated, the least of your concerns should be losing your license, getting arrested or going to jail. Of greater concern should be the possibility of killing other people and/or yourself.

Alcohol
Beer, wine, or other alcoholic beverages, all have the same effect of depressing the central nervous system. This causes the bodily functions that are controlled by the brain to slow down. These include the ability to have good judgement, your reasoning skills, memory retention, slurring of speech, controlled muscle movements and your emotional stability. When alcohol intake is low, the drinker feels relaxed and less inhibited and is enjoying themselves. This state also puts the alcohol in control of decision making, causing less responsible actions on the part of the person drinking. This would be the time to take the Guardian Angel alcohol test, before progressing with more alcohol intake.

Alcohol Effects and Driving:

• Impaired Vision - Depth perception becomes distorted and your pupils do not react as fast to light. This causes an inability to judge distances and light may be blinding to you.
  
• Impaired Coordination - This is especially important as being able to push the right pedal while driving, such as the brake and accelerator, could make a big difference in the outcome while driving.
  
• Impaired Judgement - This is important as it relates to the ability to make good decisions while driving.
  
• Impaired Memory - While intoxicated you could forget where you are going and/or why you were going there. Appointments are missed and recent events become a blur.
  

TIME - The liver helps with alcohol metabolism and can process approximately one ounce of alcohol an hour in someone who has a good liver. The rate of metabolism is different for men and women. After ingestion of one ounce of alcohol, it would take a man approximately one hour and 15 minutes to return to a BAC of 0.00 and with a woman it would take approximately one hour and 30 minutes. The average body can metabolize approximately 0.015% blood alcohol per hour.

BODY WEIGHT - Generally, the bigger you are, the more alcohol you can absorb before becoming intoxicated. Since this is not always the case, it would be best to test yourself when you start "feeling good" to make sure you don't drink too much. The Guardian Angel alcohol test strips would be easy to use and give you a quick result.

STOMACH CONTENTS - An empty stomach will allow the alcohol to absorb more quickly into the bloodstream and your ability to become intoxicated happens quickly. Drinking alcohol on a full stomach will slow down the alcohol absorption into the bloodstream, but you will still get the same level of intoxication that you would with an empty stomach - it will just take longer for you to feel the effects.
