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.

Heather Locklear drunk driving arrest

DUI stories seems to be a favorite topic amongst those who love to gossip about the glamorous life of celebrities. Associated Press reported last week of another DUI incident this time involving Heather Locklear. The actress was arrested on suspicion of DUI in Santa Barbara, an affluent urban S.CA town. As she was leaving a parking lot she was driving odd, erratically stepping on the gas pedal. At the time the arresting police officer noted her car, it was parked on a side of the freeway blocking the road, which triggered the suspicion of the police officer. The actress got out of her car and Heather Locklear drunk driving arreststumbled into traffic in the middle of the freeway.

The police officer did not recognize the celebrity. He suspected that the female driver was under the influence and took her to the police station where she underwent alcohol and drug test. She was suspected to be under the influence of prescription medications and was booked accordingly.

Luckily there was no accidents and no property damage or injuries have been sustained as a result of the famous actress’ reckless behavior.

According to an unnamed resource Heather Locklear was treated earlier this year in a clinic providing medical services to patients suffering from anxiety and depression.

The photo provided by the arresting authority suggests that the actress must have had one too many drinks even before she got in the driver seat of her car. Smeared mascara and messy heir, as well as a strange stare in her eyes is the evidence of severe intoxication.
