Does alcohol consumption produce exactly the same effects in all people?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Alcohol does not affect all drivers in the same way. Even if two people drink the same amount and type of drink, the physiological effects and the blood alcohol level will differ markedly. This is due to individual factors such as weight (the lower the weight, the higher the concentration of alcohol in the blood), sex (women tend to metabolize it more slowly and have a lower proportion of body water), age (young and elderly people are more sensitive) and having recently eaten (food slows the passage of alcohol into the bloodstream). For this reason, you must never trust that a given amount will not impair your driving abilities.
