Alcohol geldt ook fietser

About Alcohol behind the wheel: the limit and the glass: which statement is correct?

1. The limit applies to the driver of a VEHICLE, and a bicycle is a vehicle.
2. A novice driver may drive up to 0.5 promille, just like an experienced driver.
3. Drinking one standard glass of alcohol makes no difference to your fitness to drive — it will not show up in the test.
4. A strong cup of coffee or a few glasses of water sober you up faster than simply waiting.

You are 19 years old and obtained your B driving licence three years ago. At the birthday party in Zwolle you drank one glass of wine (~0.25 promille) at eight o'clock. At half past nine, over an hour and a half later, you drink a strong cup of coffee and drive off. What applies to you?

1. You may go up to 0.5‰, just like an experienced driver, so the glass of wine is not a problem either way
2. You are a novice driver (limit 0.2‰); after ninety minutes your promillage has naturally dropped to around 0.05-0.15‰, so it may already be under the limit
3. You are a novice driver (limit 0.2‰); the coffee dropped your promillage extra, so you are under the limit

At the party in Zwolle you drink one beer (250 ml, 5%) at eight o'clock. How much promille (‰) does that produce on average, per the book?
