Car permit · Alcohol and drugs

Once you have been drinking, what is the one thing that brings your blood alcohol concentration (BAC) down?

Correct answer: Letting enough time pass.

Answer options

  1. AWorking out hard at the gym
  2. BLetting enough time pass Correct
  3. CDrinking a few cups of strong coffee

Why

Your body clears alcohol at a steady pace, so only time without more drinks lowers your BAC. Coffee, exercise or a cold shower might make you feel more alert, but none of them reduces your BAC.
