How we calculate BAC (Widmark formula)

BAC (‰) = alcohol (g) / (body weight (kg) × r) − 0.15 × hours elapsed. Factor r: men = 0.68, women = 0.55. Time to sobriety = BAC / 0.15.

Example: 80 kg man, 500 ml beer (5%)

80 kg man, 500 ml 5% beer ≈ 19.7 g alcohol: BAC ≈ 0.36‰. Time to sobriety: approx. 2.4 hours.
