How much alcohol did you have to drink?
The amount of alcohol you had to drink will be the starting point for a lawyer to determine how to best
defend your case. In Washington you can be arrested for driving with enough alcohol in your system to be over the
legal limit OR if your driving ability is affected by the alcohol you drank. The BAC calculator below will help you determine
how much alcohol was in your system at the time of your arrest. Our lawyers have "experts" available that can testify in court
to refute the BAC (breath test) reading that the prosecutor will use against you. Please call 1.877.258.9544 to schedule a
free case evaluation.

The Intoximeters Inc. "Drink Wheel"1 is a form that you can fill out. Upon completion we will instantly compute
your estimated blood/breath alcohol concentration ("BAC") based on the information that you have provided and return that
estimate to you. It is presented as a public service to Intoximeters web site visitors. Its primary purpose is to provide
useful information about the responsible use of alcohol.
Why is it called a "Drink Wheel"?
We call it the "Drink Wheel" because it is based on various paper and cardboard
BAC calculators that are given out in alcohol awareness programs, some of which are in the form of a wheel that you can spin
around to calculate your estimated BAC based on what and how much you have had to drink.
It would be extremely foolish for us to pretend that our "Drink Wheel" can
tell you what your BAC actually is, first because it would open us up to an incredible amount of potential liability and second
if it really did work accurately there would be no need for anyone to buy the instruments that we make and sell.
A person's actual BAC is dependent on many complex factors, including their
physical condition (body composition, health etc...) and what they have recently ingested (including food, water, medications
and other drugs). This site includes a more detailed discussion of the Pharmacology and Disposition of alcohol in humans.
The results that are generated are rough estimates of an average healthy person's
BAC assuming typical beverage sizes, recipes and alcohol content. The BAC estimates generated by the Drink Wheel should
not be used to infer anyone's fitness to work, drive or perform any other task or duty.
