Common Questions about Drunk Driving, Part 1

How much alcohol can one person drink so that you can still legally drive?

It all depends on the size of the person, how much the person has had to eat that day and whether that person is taking medicine because some medicines will increase the effects of alcohol. However, if you're a man or a woman of average size and have no health problems and are not taking any medicines, one or two beers probably will not put you above the legal limit, which in MA is .08 blood alcohol content (b.a.c.) for a person 21 years old or older. If you are under 21, the legal limit is .02. Drinking any alcohol can bring you to .02 or greater.
