Does driving for 12 hours under the influence of alcohol count as drunk driving?

Whether or not drunk driving counts as drunk driving is determined by the concentration of alcohol in the blood.

Some people have a good ability to break down alcohol, and the blood alcohol concentration after 12 hours still meets the standard for drunk driving. Some people decompose slowly, and the alcohol concentration in the small blood can still reach the standard of drunk driving after 12 hours. Therefore, if the blood alcohol content needs to be tested, a blood sample should be taken for examination.

There are two types of drunk driving, one is drunk driving, which is the driving behavior of drunk driving for the driver of the vehicle with a blood alcohol content greater than or equal to 20mg 100ml and less than 80mg 100ml. Another type of drunk driving is the driving behavior of driving a vehicle driver with a blood alcohol content greater than or equal to 80mg 100ml.

12 hours after drunkenness According to each person's ability to decompose alcohol, whether the blood alcohol content constitutes the concentration of drunk driving standards is also different, some people decompose quickly, and it will be normal after 12 hours; Some people are slow to decompose, and the blood alcohol concentration is still up to the standard for drunk driving at 12 hours. Drunk driving is still determined based on the blood alcohol content. According to the "Threshold and Test of Blood and Breath Alcohol Content of Vehicle Drivers" on drunk driving and drunk driving.

1. Drunk driving is the driving behavior of the vehicle driver with a blood alcohol content greater than or equal to 20mg 100ml and less than 80mg 100ml. 2. Driving behavior of drunk driving vehicle drivers with a blood alcohol content greater than or equal to 80mg 100ml. If it is necessary to test the blood alcohol content, a blood sample should be taken in time.

Blood samples should be taken by professionals as required, and alcohol or volatile organic drugs should not be used to disinfect **; Anticoagulants should be added to the blood sample to prevent blood clotting; The container containing the blood sample should be clean and dry, leave no space and seal it after the blood sample is loaded, store it at low temperature, and send it for testing in time.
