About the Drink Wheel
The Intoximeters Inc. "Drink Wheel"1 is a form that you
can fill out. Upon completion we will instantly compute your estimated blood/breath
alcohol concentration ("BAC") or blood alcohol content based on the information
that you have provided and return that estimate to you. It is presented as a public
service to Intoximeters web site visitors. Its primary purpose is to provide useful
information about the responsible use of alcohol.
Why is it called a "Drink Wheel"?
We call it the "Drink Wheel" because it is based on various paper and
cardboard BAC calculators that are given out in alcohol awareness programs, some of which
are in the form of a wheel that you can spin around to calculate your estimated BAC based
on what and how much you have had to drink.
Disclaimer
It would be extremely foolish for us to pretend that our "Drink Wheel"
can tell you what your BAC actually is, first because it would open us up to an incredible
amount of potential liability and second if it really did work accurately there would be
no need for anyone to buy the instruments that we make and sell.
A person's actual BAC is dependent on many complex factors, including their
physical condition (body composition, health etc...) and what they have recently ingested
(including food, water, medications and other drugs). This site includes a more detailed
discussion of the Pharmacology and
Disposition of alcohol in humans.
The results that are generated are rough estimates of an average healthy
person's BAC assuming typical beverage sizes, recipes and alcohol content. The BAC
estimates generated by the Drink Wheel should not be used to infer anyone's fitness
to work, drive or perform any other task or duty.
