What is the legal limit bac, which is the baseline for driving under the influence?

The national baseline BAC measurement is 0.08.

Explanation:

Alcohol is a psychoactive substance with a large and varied number of effects on the body and therefore its combination with driving can be fatal. According to WHO, in 2012, 15% of worldwide deaths from traffic accidents are related to alcohol. For this reason, governments set blood alcohol limits so that individuals can drive. In the US the national baseline BAC measurement is 0.08.

As a central nervous system depressant, alcohol acts on several organs. In the first doses it is a stimulant and generates the sensation of excitement. However, inhibitions and judgment are affected. As consumption increases, motor skills and reaction time will also suffer. In high doses, it may cause drowsiness or even fainting.
