About the Drink Wheel

The Intoximeters Inc. "Drink Wheel" is a form that you can fill out. Upon completion we will instantly compute your estimated blood/breath alcohol concentration ("BAC") based on the information that you have provided and return that estimate to you. It is presented as a public service to Intoximeters web site visitors. Its primary purpose is to provide useful information about the responsible use of alcohol.

Why is it called a "Drink Wheel"?

We call it the "Drink Wheel" because it is based on various paper and cardboard BAC calculators that are given out in alcohol awareness programs, some of which are in the form of a wheel that you can spin around to calculate your estimated BAC based on what and how much you have had to drink.

It would be extremely foolish for us to pretend that our "Drink Wheel" can tell you what your BAC actually is, first because it would open us up to an incredible amount of potential liability and second if it really did work accurately there would be no need for anyone to buy the instruments that we make and sell.

A person's actual BAC is dependent on many complex factors, including their physical condition (body composition, health etc...) and what they have recently ingested (including food, water, medications and other drugs). This site includes a more detailed discussion of the Pharmacology and Disposition of alcohol in humans.

The results that are generated are rough estimates of an average healthy person's BAC assuming typical beverage sizes, recipes and alcohol content. The BAC estimates generated by the Drink Wheel should not be used to infer anyone's fitness to work, drive or perform any other task or duty.

Dealing with consequences of a DUI arrest

Finding a DUI Attorney

When you are faced with a possible DUI conviction, there is no better way to ensure that you get a lighter sentence than to hire a qualified DUI attorney. Whether you need legal representation in the criminal DUI action against you, a personal injury case, a legal claim against the manufacturer of your vehicle, or a general appearance in the court of law, you will need to hire an attorney that specializes in that specific area of law. Make sure that you check the attorney’s credentials, as well as references, and discuss your case in details during your initial consultation with an attorney you are thinking of hiring. Most law firms have a web site that you can look at to get a general idea of the firm and the attorney’s educational credential and expertise.

Don’t hire the first attorney you consult with. Shop around and spend some time to find the best attorney available in your area. It is important that you establish a rapport with an attorney of your choice. When you have trust in the skills and experience of your attorney, your court appearance will go smoother, ensuring the most favorable outcome of the hearing.
