According to the manual, what is the only thing that will lower your blood alcohol concentration after drinking?
-
A.
Drinking hot coffee
-
B.
Taking a cold shower
-
C.
Eating a full meal
-
D.
The passage of time Correct
The answer is "The passage of time"
Blood alcohol falls only as the body processes it over time; coffee, cold showers, and food cannot speed that up. Drivers who pick A are repeating the well-known bar-story coffee remedy the manual specifically rejects.
The traps in the wrong answers
A. Drinking hot coffee
Coffee is the classic myth the manual specifically rejects. Repeats the well-known folk remedy the manual explicitly disproves.
B. Taking a cold shower
A cold shower is another myth the manual specifically rejects. Repeats a familiar bar-story remedy the manual explicitly disproves.
C. Eating a full meal
Food may slow absorption but does not lower an existing BAC, and the manual does not list it as a way to sober up. Extends the food-with-alcohol tip into a claim the manual does not make.
