First of all, the alcohol breakdown table will be useful to drivers who have recently drunk alcohol. Also, the provided data can be used by anyone who wants to calculate the average sobering time, that is, after how many hours the alcohol test will not show the presence of alcohol residues in the blood. We will consider basic drinks.
As of 2017, according to Article 12.8 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation, liability for drunk driving: “occurs in the event of the established fact of the use of substances that cause alcohol intoxication, which is determined by the presence of absolute ethyl alcohol in a concentration exceeding the possible total measurement error, namely 0,16 milligram per liter of exhaled air. This amount approximately corresponds to 0,3 ppm (0,3 g of alcohol per 1 liter of blood).
