In Italian vehicle safety and emergency procedures (Codice della Strada), what is the rule regarding the physiological reality regarding the elimination of alcohol from the human body?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: D. Alcohol is cleared only by the liver at a steady rate; coffee, showers, or sport cannot speed it up

  1. Step 1: The liver oxidizes alcohol at a fixed pace (approx. 0.1 to 0.15 g/l per hour); popular myths (coffee, cold water) have zero effect on BAC. Answer: Alcohol is cleared only by the liver at a steady rate; coffee, showers, or sport cannot speed it up. Why not the others: the other options do not conform to vehicle safety standards and emergency regulations under the Codice della Strada.
