In six hours that is a lot to drink. But it also depends on someones tolerance for alcohol and how much they weigh. A small person can become drunk on a little alcohol where as a large person it would take more of the same to get them drunk. Same thing goes for someone who doesn't drink much as opposed to someone who drinks all the time. I have seen people arrested for DWI who passed some field sobriety tests but were still over the .08% blood alcohol level. |

For the average person:
Assuming -
440ml can of beer at 5% - 2.2 units / can
100ml of 15% alcohol in Dirty Martini - 1.5 units
One hour initially for your body to start processing the alcohol
You burn 1 unit per half hour
You had one drink an hour, and stopped drinking after hour five, giving yourself an hour before driving.
Time (Hr) . . Drink Consumed . . Units remaining in blood
1 . . . . . . . . 2.2 . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.2
2 . . . . . . . . 2.2 . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.2 + 2.2 - 2 = 2.4
3 . . . . . . . . 2.2 . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.4 + 2.2 - 2 = 2.6
4 . . . . . . . . 2.2 . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.6 + 2.2 - 2 = 2.8
5 . . . . . . . . 1.5 . . . . . . . . . . . . 2.8 + 2.2 - 2 = 2.3
5.5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2.3 - 1 = 1.3
6 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1.3 - 1 = .3
1 unit of alcohol is approximately 15 mg of alcohol / 100ml of blood.
0.3 units of alcohol is approximately (0.3*15) / 1 = 4.5mg of alcohol / 100ml of blood. Depending on your local laws on levels (the UK is 80mg per 100ml) your level may or may not be legal. Lack of food in your system will affect your results though, and increase the strength of any ingredient and the final result will be higher.
Remember to take these results as a loose guide. If in doubt, DON'T DRIVE! |

This guide below shows, for a given individual, the DMV's best guess as to what the breath test results would be for a given amount of drinking. There are so many variables in the formula used to calculate breath test results based upon weight and number of drinks consumed that it has limited utility as a way to precisely determine an individual's breath alcohol concentration.
(2) One drink=1 ounce of 80 proof spirits; 3 ounce glass of wine; or 8 ounce glass of 5% beer.
