    Back when I was drinking, 3 beers wouldn’t even get me buzzed. I could shotgun a 6 pack of tallboys and still pass any field sobriety test.

    The quantity of alcohol needed to be impaired is very subjective.

          No it’s not though. You may not feel the buzz that you are chasing, but the actual impairment is still real and in place. You may think you’re fine, but your not. That’s one. And two, once you’ve had 3, your more likely to have more. And if your willing to drive with 3 when you’re sober, you’re Likely to drive with 6 when you’re drunk. Every drunk driver who ever got behind the wheel thought they were fine. Even the ones who had accidents.

              No, I think you don’t. Even in people with high tolerance, low levels of alcohol still impare motor skills, reaction time and inhibitions.
