  • The average adult metabolizes alcohol at a rate of about 8.5 g of alcohol per hour (i.e. about two-thirds of a regular beer). This rate can vary depending on several different factors, including the amount of alcohol that an individual normally drinks, whether they are male and female, liver size, and genetic factors.
  • After an individual consumes three or four drinks, their judgment and attention span is somewhat impaired and their ability to drive safely will be limited; this is due to the impairment of their sensory-motor skills.
