- How many drinks is 50 milligrams of alcohol?
One drink can put you over the limit. In New Zealand, the legal limit is 50mg per 100ml of blood (equivalent to 250mcg of alcohol per litre of breath). Even if you're just over the limit, in the eyes of the law you're a drunk-driver and a criminal – there is no grey area.
