As the concentration of alcohol in blood (BAC) increases in the conductor, the incidence rate of accidents also increases. The increase in the incidence rate of accidents is derived from an increase in BAC is progressive. In comparison with a sober driver, the incidence rate of accidents a driver with a BAC of 0.8 g / l (being the legal limit in 3 of the 25 member states of the EU, Spain is 0.3 g / l) is 2.7 times that of a sober driver. When a driver has a rate BAC of 1.5 g / l the accident incidence rate is estimated to be 22 times that of a sober driver.
