Georgia DUI Blood Alcohol Content (BAC)

GA DUI Case Evaluation BAC is simply one's blood alcohol content, or the amount of alcohol found in one's bloodstream. Your BAC can be measured either by percentage by mass or by mass per volume. For example, a BAC of .20% means that you have 1 gram of alcohol per every 500 grams of blood.

Georgia DUI Blood Alcohol ContentIn the state of Georgia, it is illegal to be driving with a BAC level of .08 or more. Police officers use three different methods for measuring one's BAC: through blood, breathe or urine tests. Law enforcement utilizes BAC to determine an individual's impairment.

Unfortunately, blood alcohol tests make several assumptions about the person being tested. These assumptions are merely averages that typically apply to most people; however these assumptions do not apply to everyone. One assumption is the ratio of blood alcohol concentration to blood alcohol content. This ratio is known as the partition ratio, which is 2100:1. But the actual ratio can vary from person to person - all the way from 1300:1 to 3100:1.

What does this mean? It means that these ratios can have a substantial influence on the accuracy of field tests and an individual's actual level of intoxication.
