Explanation
A 12-ounce bottle of wine cooler contains approximately the same amount of alcohol as a 5-ounce glass of wine, a 12-ounce can of beer, or 1.5 ounces of liquor. Each of these standard drinks delivers a similar amount of alcohol to your bloodstream and can raise your (BAC) by about 0.02% on average.
It’s not the type of alcohol that matters - it’s how much you drink. No form of alcohol is safer than another when it comes to driving. Any of these drinks can impair your driving ability, slow your reaction time, and increase the risk of a serious crash. Always drive sober.
