You feel a little warm and relaxed. You’re experiencing slight euphoria and loss of shyness, but no loss of coordination.
You are feeling relaxed, talkative, and mildly euphoric. Your inhibitions are lowered and your reasoning and memory are impaired slightly. Your coordination may be mildly impaired.
Your balance might be off, and your speech slurred. Your judgment and self-control will be reduced, and your reasoning, ability to assess risk, and memory may be impaired. At .08 it is illegal to drive in all 50 states.
You believe you are functioning better than you are. You are noisy and may engage in possibly embarrassing behaviors. There is a noticeable reduction in your reaction time.
You should be very clumsy and clearly drunk at this point. Your judgment and memory are getting worse, as well as vision, reaction time, and hearing.
You’re in ‘blackout’ territory . It’s very likely that you could have large gaps of memory missing the next morning. Drivers with BAC of .15 or more are responsible for more than half of the alcohol-related traffic fatalities in the United States.
You should’ve hit the brakes a long time ago. You are sloppy drunk and will need assistance walking. Your inability to keep your hands steady might cause you to spill it if you have another drink. You’re in danger of passing out, and should have severe nausea at this point, as your body is trying to expel the alcohol. You could conceivably die from choking on your vomit.
May experience extreme impairment, including total mental confusion, nausea and vomiting, difficulty walking, etc.
You may pass out or experience a loss of consciousness. You could die of alcohol poisoning. Consuming this much alcohol is dangerous and possibly life-threatening.
If you have not already lost consciousness, drinking to this level may result in coma, or even worse death.
Lower levels might kill you, but a .40 stands a much greater chance. You could easily lapse into a coma or die due to respiratory arrest. Death occurs in at least half the drinkers who reach this BAC.
