Drunk Driving DUI : Root-Cause: Standard Alcohol Drinks : Stipulations

Standard Alcohol Drinks* (SADs), which features at the forefront in the Government and all the other alcohol research, prevention, treatment institutions much publicized moderate (safe, low-risk, controlled) drinking promulgations indeed extremely dangerous for Human consumption.

My above contention based on the available alcohol(ism) epidemiological research and the survey reports which basically points to the fact that almost all the serious alcohol(ism) problems including the drunk driving accidents are caused by the high-alcohol content drinks (containing around and above 4% alcohol), which the authorities license under the banners or “Standard Alcohol Drinks” – On the other hand there absolutely no such evidence which proves that the low-alcohol (preferably around and below 2% alcohol)drinks causing any such alcohol(ism)problems.

Now the most important thing to know in this is; whenever the alcohol(ism) epidemiological research, surveys points to the alcohol(ism) problems it basically points to the SADs unless it specifically mentions the name of the “Low-Alcohol Drinks”. The SADs remains so ubiquitous in all alcohol(ism) problems research that any one questioning its evidence is like questioning the evidence of salt water in the sea water!

In this post I provide the authorities description or the stipulations of the Standard Alcohol Drinks here below.

*A Standard Alcohol Drink is calculated around 10grms to 13grams of pure alcohol in essence .

In general, its different levels of concentration in the drinks (V/V) categorized in distinct forms or kinds

makes it essentially different from each other.

In the US scale of measurement it comes to:

1.5 ounce of 80-prof distilled spirit (around 40% alcohol v/v)

one 5-ounce glass of wine (around 12% alcohol v/v)

one 12-ounce bottle of beer (around 5% alcohol v/v)

In the European scale of measurement it comes to:

A single shot of spirits or liquor of 40ml. (around 40% alcohol v/v).

A glass of wine or sherry of 140ml. (around 12% alcohol v/v).

One can of beer of 300ml. (around 5% alcohol v/v).
