yes....it takes about an hour to get rid of one unit of alcohol so by 2 and a half hours you should be fine

Why chance it? Is that other pint really worth chancing your licence?

Why do you need to drink of you are driving though, one pint is no problems if you have it and drive 2.5 hours later, but 2 is risking it a bit to be honest.

Fair enough, just wondered.

Bored as fuck sitting in work to be honest, just looking for a distraction.

Yes, but only if you brush your teeth after with whiskey.

I would say you'll be ok, but will probably be wanting 3 or 12 after having one

Legally the police have to wait 20minutes before they can test you, so if you are ever unsure make them wait by saying you've literally just had a pint and that was it, they'll have to wait then
Also if its only just over they arrest you under suspicion and test you again properly at the station which again give you more time... If your under at the station they can't do anything.
I don't condone drinking and driving, there simply isn't an excuse for it. If your going to drive just have a coke. You might feel ok but thats drugs playing with your brain giving you confidence!

Rob 2 pints is quite clearly over the limit, just because you choose to ignore doesn't mean it aint true

Why bother drinking anything with alcohol in it? If you are driving you don't drink, its quite simple, isnt it?? Plus Coke is cheaper and tastes better anyway

^ why not drink one pint if your allowed :boggle;

Coke tastes better than beer ok then if you have the taste buds of a 12 year old I quite agree.

2 pints of say, Carling, surely can't be over the limit?? If it is then I'd better modify my thinking lol!!
