I used to drink double talls, so that was a vital addition... I learned it when I worked for Nellcor, the head doctor gave me a clue... That is the company that invented pulse oximetry.. They knew blood analysis...

Yes, hyperventilating helps, but sucking pure O2 helps a LOT more...  I used to go down to the Mooney, that had O2 tankage and suck a hangover right away in 5-10 minutes...   It's also what they used to do on the sidelines at football games...   I eventually got a portable tank, because the parties were long and the drinking was hard...

Yep, you metabolize roughly one drink of ethanol per hour on average.
So two hours and two drinks have evaporated from your system.
I have always wondered if hyperventilating would help.

I got pulled over by the CHP once just after leaving a bar ( they watched where I left from and looked for any excuse, I pulled over the double yellow to go around a double parked car )...   I only knew enough to ask for the blood test option that was available then. It took them over two hours to get me to the blood draw, spent the night in the tank, but after engaging a lawyer, he told me my test came back zero.   He had them retest until the samples where gone so there would never be any sample to retest...

Drinking is like filling a barrel with a hole in it.  BAC is a tape measure inside the barrel.  Everyone has a different size hole in the bottom (their liver).  And everyone has a different sized barrel.  So if you have a big barrel and drink slow your liver can metabolize it in real time and you never feel any affects.  Tiny woman can be stewed on one good glass of wine, especially if she chugs it.

after my DUIs I had to do all the mandatory alcohol counselling. The .bac scale is weird, its like processing the alcohol out gets less efficient as consumption increased. At my weight way back then, 150lbs at the time, I could evenly drink 3 beers in 1 hour and somewhere between the 2nd and 3rd it would cross that .08 threshold. it wasnt like each beer was .03 each. cause 2 beers an hour for 2 hours would probably kick it over the limit. this was real beer, not utah water beer. I always assumed utah had very few DUIs because the water beer there made you spend more time peeing than drinking. I hate those black smoke diesels, because no matter how much good will us right wingers build, one of those assholes always has to show up and make everybody hate us

    .05% is like half a beer.  I’d bet it’s more drinking at home,
    less drinking out and about.  Basically what you said.

    Its possible that with the lower threshold more folks were able
    to be arrested before they couldgo fora croaker cruise.

    Its more probable though that ride sharing grew during that
    period and the generation of party drinkers used it more as a
    matter of trend.

    Drinking establishments being closed or otherwise inaccessible
    due to the rona too probably playeda huge role, like the seeming
    disappearance of flu.

        During Covid, in Utah, there have been the highest rate of
        deaths ever recorded due to car crashes.

        Meanwhile, at approximately the same time another experiment
        was running.

        Late 2018 Utah lowered the blood alcohol level for driving
        from .08 to .05%.

        Many, including myself, figured that there would not be a
        significant difference.

        But I also commented at the time that this one will be easy
        to prove or disprove.

        Deaths and crashes linked to drunken driving dropped by 19.8%
        since the law took effect.  I think one could say that is
        statistically significant.  Glad I was wrong.
