WHAT is the most important aim of evaluating the degree of drunkenness ? We think it is not to evaluate how much alcohol has been drunk or the alcohol level in the blood, but to determine how the central nervous system is affected by the intake of alcohol. This is because, as is generally known, even when the same amount of alcohol has been taken, there is not only a marked personal variation in the drunkenness induced but also a similarly marked variation, even in the same person, dependent on physical or mental conditions at the time the alcohol was consumed. According to a report1on alcohol drunkenness, even 0.3 or 0.4 mg/ml. of alcohol in the blood affected the driving ability in many persons tested with the simulator or by actually driving a vehicle.
