Question: When assessing a patron for intoxication, what factor is generally NOT a reliable indicator of their Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC)?

Answer options:

  • Body weight
  • Sex (biological)
  • Empty stomach ✅ Their self-reported tolerance to alcohol

Correct answer: Their self-reported tolerance to alcohol

Explanation: Self-reported tolerance to alcohol is not a reliable indicator of a person's actual BAC or their level of intoxication. People often overestimate their tolerance, and it can fluctuate. Body weight, sex (biological), and whether someone has eaten are all physiological factors that influence how quickly alcohol is absorbed and metabolized, thus affecting BAC and intoxication levels.
