Car permit · Alcohol and drugs
Which of these does NOT affect how high your blood alcohol concentration (BAC) gets?
Correct answer: Your level of physical fitness.
Answer options
- AThe number of drinks you have
- BYour level of physical fitness Correct
- CHow long you wait between drinks
Why
Your BAC rises or falls with how much alcohol you take in, how fast you drink it and how much you weigh. Being in good shape does not help your body clear alcohol faster, so it does not keep your BAC lower.
Tip Neither fitness nor a high tolerance brings your BAC down; only time removes alcohol from your body.
