DMV California Drug and Alcohol Test #1

Question 1

What is the one and only way to "sober up" before you get behind the wheel?

Accepted Answer

Wait 3 hours for your body to process the alcohol

Answer

The only way to genuinely sober up is to stop drinking and wait for the alcohol to leave your system, which could take up to three hours. This is the only way to get sober.

Question 2

Which of the following could have an impact on your ability to drive?

Accepted Answer

All of the above

Answer

Your ability to drive may be severely hindered, and you may experience serious health problems, including death if you go after consuming multiple drugs at once or alcohol in addition to other medications

Question 3

What are the repercussions of drinking coffee after one has consumed alcoholic beverages?

Accepted Answer

No effect

Answer

Coffee does not help you get sober. If you're plastered, it will take the alcohol several hours to work its way out of your system on its own. Consuming coffee will not speed up the rate at which your body metabolizes alcohol. On the other hand, coffee can influence your state of intoxication by giving the impression to your brain that you are almost sober.

Question 4

What are the consequences of refusing a chemical test for operating under the influence if you are over 21 and have no previous records of OUI (driving while under the influence)?

Accepted Answer

Your license will be suspended for a year

Answer

When a person applies for a driver's license in any state, they automatically consent to field sobriety tests and chemical tests to determine their impairment level, following "implied consent." If it is your first offence for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs and you refuse to submit to a chemical test, your driver's license will be suspended for one year.

Question 5

If you drink 12 ounces of beer, your body might get rid of it in about:

Accepted Answer

1 hour

Answer

The rate at which alcohol is metabolized can be predicted with high accuracy. Blood alcohol concentrations (BACs) are expected to decrease at a rate of.015 percent per hour for the vast majority of people. That's roughly an hour for a glass of wine or a pint of beer.
