Alcohol metabolism typically takes 24-48 hours. According to relevant research data, alcohol levels in the body significantly decrease 8-12 hours after drinking and are completely eliminated within 24-48 hours, returning to normal levels. Below is relevant information about drunk driving: 1. Criteria for Determination: As stipulated in the 'Blood and Breath Alcohol Content Thresholds and Testing for Vehicle Drivers' issued by the National Quality Supervision and Inspection Administration, driving under the influence of alcohol is defined as driving behavior where the driver's blood alcohol content is greater than or equal to 20mg/100ml but less than 80mg/100ml. Drunk driving is defined as driving behavior where the driver's blood alcohol content is greater than or equal to 80mg/100ml. 2. Hazards: The stimulation from alcohol consumption can cause excitement. When alcohol reaches a certain concentration in the bloodstream, a person's reaction and control abilities decline, along with the ability to handle emergencies. For drunk drivers, the higher the blood alcohol content, the greater the likelihood of a collision.
