We return to offer you very simple applications that can be useful indaily use. In this case we are talking about an application that will allow you to discover, based on how much you have drunk, whether you are in compliance with the law or not. So let's see how it works Can I Drive.

Let's start from some assumptions that we consider important, given the topic: even moderate use of alcohol is risky and potentially harmful ¹ and even just a small beer can affect your reflexes ².

Can I Drive (?)

However, we are certainly not here to lecture anyone, but it seems to us to be a necessary premise given that we are going to talk about precisely this. Each state has decided what is the maximum blood alcohol level allowed to drive. In Italy it is zero grams for those under 21 years of age, for new drivers and professionals. For all others, the limit is 0.5g/l ³.

The only way to know precisely your blood alcohol level is a blood test. There are also other oral instruments, although a little less precise ⁴, and you can also try to calculate it according to some tables, which is what it will try to do Can I Drive.

But always keep in mind that they are purely theoretical calculations because there are many factors that influence alcohol levels such as age, weight, sex, genetic predispositions and whether or not food is consumed at the same time ⁵.

Can I drive?

Can I Drive allows you to enter some of this data to try to calculate your blood alcohol level. In fact, you can enter your weight, gender and your general state of health. The limits of many countries are pre-loaded within the application including Italy itself with its 0.5g/l.

After entering your details you can tell the application how much you drank and even when. Your blood alcohol level will then be calculated immediately and you will also be advised how long it would be best to wait before driving.

It is therefore an interesting application that can help you in case of doubts. As mentioned, however, take the results as theorists and remember that If you're going to drive, it's probably best to abstain from alcohol altogether.

Finally, we would like to point out that the application works well even if it has not been updated for some time. But it is a type of application that, in our opinion, does not necessarily need to be continuously updated especially if it works without problems.
