HOW TO USE THESE CHARTS: First, find the chart that includes your weight. For example, if you weigh 160 lbs., use the "150 to 169" chart. Then look under "Total Drinks" at the "2" on this "150 to 169" chart. Now look below the "2" drinks, in the row for 1 hour. You'll see your BAC is in the gray shaded zone. This means that if you drive after 2 drinks in 1 hour, you could be arrested. In the gray zone, your and your chances of chances of having an accident are 5 times higher than if you had no drinks. But if you had 4 drinks in 1 hour, your BAC would be in the red shaded area... having an accident 25 times higher. Suppose that you weigh 145 pounds and that you have four drinks in 3 hours. If you then drive, how much more likely are you to have an accident than if you had refrained from drinking?. times ble

Use this bar graph to answer the question. The following statement is included with the graph.
There is no safe way to drive after drinking. These charts show that a few drinks can make you an unsafe driver. They show that drinking affects your BLOOD ALCOHOL
CONCENTRATION (BAC). The BAC zones for various numbers of drinks and time periods are printed in white, gray, and red. HOW TO USE THESE CHARTS: First, find the chart that
includes your weight. For example, if you weigh 160 lbs., use the "150 to 169" chart. Then look under "Total Drinks" at the "2" on this "150 to 169" chart. Now look below the "2"
drinks, in the row for 1 hour. You'll see your BAC is in the gray shaded zone. This means that if you drive after 2 drinks in 1 hour, you could be arrested. In the gray zone, your
and your chances of
chances of having an accident are 5 times higher than if you had no drinks. But if you had 4 drinks in 1 hour, your BAC would be in the red shaded area...
having an accident 25 times higher.
Suppose that you weigh 145 pounds and that you have four drinks in 3 hours. If you then drive, how much more likely are you to have an accident than if you had refrained from drinking?.
