For the first Question: The right answer is only A.

After people have drunk, it will be harder for them to make quick decisions, as is the case in driving, since motor coordination and judgment are impaired,

It can take up to two hours or more to get rid of the alcohol (it depends on the ethnicity of the person and whether it is a regular drinker or not), so it would take a lot more than an hour to get rid of alcohol in the body.


For the second question: the right answer is All above

According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism in the USA, one standard drink contains approximately 14 grams of pure alcohol, which represents the measures mentioned in the MCQ.


For the third question: 

When the victim has just absorbed too much toxic, he initially has troubles of consciousness and a ventilatory stop that can change, in the absence of first aid, to death.

As soon as you discover this toxic abuse, call the SAMU (15) and do the first aid:

In case of disturbances of consciousness, carefully tilt your head backward.

Check for the presence of breathing movements, and place the casualty in the lateral safety position.

In the presence of respiratory arrest, after having checked the presence of a carotid pulse, practice mouth-to-mouth.

In all cases, surveillance of the victim is mandatory until the arrival of medical aid.

1. After people have been drinking they will have a harder time making safe decisions about not drinking and driving (A).

2. A standard drink is generally 12-ounce beer, a 5-ounce glass of wine, 1.5 ounces of liquor (D.all of the above).

Further explanation

One Standard Drink means how much alcohol is contained in that amount of liquid. The actual amount of 'a standard drink' differs from one country to another. In the USA one standard drink of regular beer is 12 ounces which are usually about 5% alcohol, 5 ounces of wine, which is typically about 12% alcohol and 1.5 ounces of distilled spirits, which is about 40% alcohol.

Even though, the legal limit for operating a motor vehicle .08% BAC (blood alcohol concentration) but a smaller amount of alcohol still impact your driving ability. At a BAC of .08, you might not be able to control the speed of the vehicle, blurry or double vision and your reaction time is slower. No amount of alcohol is acceptable.

Some people believe that giving coffee to an overdosing person might help, but in fact, it could make things worse. Here some tips that we can follow for helping a drunk person:

  1. Stop them from drinking more alcohol beverages.
  2. Drive them home or help them get home safely.
