Explanation
The amount of alcohol in a 5 oz. glass of wine is equivalent to that in a 12 oz. can of beer. This means that if you take a chemical test after consuming either of these drinks, your BAC level would be the same. Remember that even a small amount of alcohol can negatively affect your judgment, reflexes, vision, and reaction time. It is always advisable to avoid driving after drinking; instead, ask a sober friend to drive or call a ride service.
