Driver, be vigilant at the festive table!
At 0.2 to 0.5 ppm, it is already difficult to estimate the speed at which light sources are moving and their size.At 0.5 - 0.8 ppm (1 liter of beer or 150 ml of vodka), the eyes switch more slowly to different types of lighting and perceive the red color less well.
More alcohol in the blood reduces the angle of vision, and the driver does not see at all what is happening on the sides.A dose of 1.2 ppm (2.5 liters of beer or 400 ml of vodka) generally results in total loss of capacity. A blood level of 4-5 ppm is officially considered fatal.
Alcohol is eliminated from the body very slowly: the rate of decomposition of alcohol in the blood in men is 0.10 - 0.15 ppm per hour, and in women - 0.085 - 0.10 ppm, and this process cannot be accelerated. After drinking a bottle of vodka, sobriety can only threaten you after 18 - 20 hours.

To answer this question accurately, you need to take into account not only the type of alcoholic beverage that you drank, but also your weight and physical condition. Let's figure out how long the most popular alcoholic drink in our country - beer - is excreted from the body. So:
It's getting worse with vodka. If you take again for the "standard" of an adult man weighing 90 kilograms, only 100 grams of vodka will be removed from his tissues for almost 4 hours! That is the same amount of time as half a liter of strong beer. About the same amount is eliminated from the body of cognac, whiskey and rum (almost all types of strong alcohol).
Stories that champagne is almost instantly excreted are exaggerated. Even 100 ml of this sparkling wine will "play" in your blood hour! And if we take into account that no one drinks it with such microscopic doses on holidays, then it becomes obvious that you can not get behind the wheel for at least another day... By the way, 100 grams of simple red wine are displayed for an hour and a half, so all the legends about his innocence are better to forget.
Much of alcohol elimination depends on your physical fitness. If you are harmoniously developed, do not suffer from overweight and have drunk fast-absorbing types of alcohol (champagne, beer), then you will sober up much faster than a person who suffers from fullness, and also drank something stronger.
In addition, how much alcohol weathers also has a significant impact on the emotional state. Simply put, metabolic processes are much faster in states of shock or profound psychological trauma. Moreover, in such a state, a person can drink vodka literally with glasses, but not feel intoxicated. But that does not mean that he is sober and can drive.
We warn you immediately: you need to perform these actions only if you really have a serious need. In particular, when you need to bring to the senses the only driver in a drunken company for emergency travel to the hospital.
So, if you urgently need to sober up, then you need to use a cold shower, massage the feet and palms with snow, as well as simple tooth brushing, along with chewing peppermint. After that, you need to induce vomiting in a person and after it use a very strong tea or coffee (if you drink tea immediately, then the absorption of alcohol from the stomach will only accelerate).
But please note that for a long time this will only make you feel like someone who has drunk weak alcohol. Otherwise, the sobriety (partial sobriety) will occur for no more than half an hour. If we talk about how much alcohol is eliminated from the body in this case, it is already difficult to say for sure. Everything here will be proportional to the amount and degrees of alcohol consumed. On average, you need to be guided by the above information.
