How to read the BAC chart
First, select your biological sex using the toggle above the chart. Find your approximate body weight in the left column. Then, follow the row across to the number of drinks you have consumed. The number in the box is your estimated Blood Alcohol Concentration percentage.
Why charts are less accurate than calculators
This chart assumes a standard 'one hour' timeframe and does not account for metabolism over longer periods. It provides a static snapshot. For a dynamic estimate that accounts for time, food, and metabolism, use our interactive calculator.
Using this chart for safety
This chart is a visual aid, not a breathalyzer. If your intersection puts you anywhere near 0.05% or higher, do not drive. Impairment often begins before you reach the legal limit.
