Drunkest Driver Ever?

[5829]

Oregon woman nine times over state blood alcohol content limit

JANUARY 10--In what may be the most extreme drunk driving case ever, an Oregon woman was arrested last month with a .72 blood alcohol level--nine times the state's legal limit. Terri Comer, 42, was arrested after she was discovered unconscious in her car, which sheriff's deputies found running and in a snow bank on a highway in Klamath County at 11:30 AM on December 28. After breaking a car window, rescuers removed the comatose Comer from her Toyota and transported her to a local hospital, where a blood draw revealed the .72 BAC. She was reportedly hospitalized for a day before being released. As seen in a police photo, Comer's vehicle came to a stop about 50 feet in front of one of those portable traffic signs reminding motorists not to drink and drive (a close-up of the sign can be seen here). Comer is pictured below in a 2006 mug shot snapped after a prior drunk driving arrest. In that case, her BAC was recorded in the relatively minor .3 range.

Does anyone know by theory or experience what we're talking about here..? Obviously the bitch was smashed out of her mind to be in an alcohol induced coma, but...For a person my size (6'2", 230 lbs) how much would I have to drink to get a DUI roughly..? A six pack..? A fifth..? I know people that are fairly sober, able to drive, but had we gotten pulled over I know they wouldn't have gotten away w/o a DUI...But since I was busy drinking and not counting their beers, I don't know...I've drunk plenty, been far from smashed, but probably would have been deemed to be driving drunk...Usually when I'm drinking I just stay home, but on a couple of occasions (New Orleans, anyone?) I definitely had my fill...

As a quick general gauge 1 drink = .02 and it takes 1 hour for one drink to get out of your system. So that would mean the equivalent of 36 drinks in her system.
4 drinks in a hour (1 every 15 minutes) will give you a BAC of .08 which is DWI.

From MADD.org
To reach a .08 BAC level, a 170-pound man would have to drink approximately four drinks in one hour on an empty stomach or a 137-pound woman would have to drink approximately three drinks in one hour on an empty stomach.

hard to know. There's not much experience with those levels of intoxication -- cuz people usually die before they get there. To get to that level, something must be "off" with her. . . would depend a lot on her kidney and liver function, her hydration, when and what she'd last eaten

Bitch must have ate a loaf of bread man, that's about the only thing I could think of...
