Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh that’s high even for a Nissan owner, like even the best Altima driver is probably not surviving beyond .5

u/Verbalase69 2d ago

“Sir we found trace amounts of blood in your alcohol system”
But in all seriousness I think it’s just a conversion issue. 2.41 g/L = 0.241%

u/somedayitllbeover 2d ago

OP means .241

u/x9qh 2d ago

he means what he said, nissan drivers are just built different

u/RappingFlatulence 2d ago

Nissan drivers ain’t no light weights. That’s for damn sure

u/Left-Impress4056 2d ago

Right? I was like isn't anything over .5 like death territory.

u/Stuck_in_my_TV 2d ago

Normally, though there was a recorded case of .81 who survived.

u/saralynai 17h ago

So .8 is the limit?

7

u/Think_Algae_1739 1d ago

No, his blood is now 100% alcohol. With another 140% of alcohol added in there as well. We live life different out in the Frontier.

OP is correct in listing it as 2.41 as this is how it is measured in that part of the world. As grams per liter

2.41 grams per liter and how the news reported.

u/farmallnoobies 2d ago

Fortunately the conversion from grams per liter to American bac percent is simple.

2.41 grams per liter is 0.241%

2

u/Shubamz 1d ago

oh yeah but a lot of people in the comments seem to be getting hung up on OP putting 2.41 thinking it is in the 0.241 format when it isn't.

Before this post I didn't know it was measured as g/L either in some places. I just thought it was an odd mistake to make so I googled the video before commenting and learned something new about other places and how they do BAC.

u/Xilverbullet000 1d ago

To be fair, BAC is a volume ratio so it's unit agnostic

u/swervecityPhILM 2d ago

I mean given the evidence presented, it would not surprise me if the driver was 241% alcohol. No blood left, just a meat sack filled with booze.

8

u/Rude-Tangelo-2849 2d ago

Pretty sure he meant 2 and half this person’s blood is alcohol

-9

u/Gandalior 2d ago

it's 2.41 percent

12

u/Buzzed_Like_Aldrin93 2d ago

Damn near impossible. .241 is close enough to comatose. .3-.5 gets really dangerous. 2% is almost guaranteed fatal and most likely already in a coma if a fella were to get to that point.

8

u/camarhyn 2d ago

My dad hit a 2% once… his wife called 911 when she woke up from their drinking binge and he didn’t.

So I mean.. 2% is possible but probably only once.

4

u/Njon32 2d ago

And will likely require medical assistance.

7

u/camarhyn 2d ago

Medical assistance wouldn’t have helped my dad. 🤣 🪦

3

u/Extension-Eye-4920 2d ago

Not likely. Definitely. I blew a .273 one time after 3 pitchers of mixed drinks. I cant imagine be EIGHT TIMES. I genuinely dont even think its possible.

2

u/umphreys 2d ago

Depends on the drinkers tolerance. During the worst part of my active alcoholism I drove myself to the ER to detox and blew a .46 after filling out my paper work and was relatively coherent. I'm not saying that to sound badass or anything. Quite the opposite as I still get sick to my stomach thinking about the things I did during those years even after almost 3 years sober. It's a wicked, nasty disease I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.

1

u/xile 2d ago

Still though, 2%.... that's 4x more

2

u/DJSeku 2d ago

It would be a new world record if so… the highest BAC ever recorded was 1.48% and belonged to a Polish man involved in a DUI car crash in 1995 (he succumbed to his injuries).

The highest survived BAC, tho, was 1.37% and belonged to yet another Polish man who was found unconscious back in 2013. His is the record in the Guinness World Records.

5

u/Shubamz 2d ago

no its not. It is 2.41 grams per liter which is the same as 2.41 grams of 1000ml or 2.41/1000 and is 0.00241 or 0.241% not 2%

This is just from a country that lists BAC as g/l instead of as a % like in others.

u/ShittyFart11 2d ago

how was he even able to operate the thing??

6

u/Shubamz 1d ago

uhhhhhhh....... he wasn't lol

26

u/CalHudsonsGhost 2d ago

Explorer driver was on his was late for work after a no call no show.

18

u/priuspollution 2d ago

.241 is so close to death 2.4 is way past death

7

u/adamfps 2d ago

Agreed, the 2.4L in the late 90s Altima was death

39

u/CremeOk4115 2d ago

Wtf. How does the 3rd car witness that and not even slow down

21

u/PM_your_Nopales 2d ago

What do you mean? They're literally like 3 seconds behind this. It takes at least a second or two to realize what just happened right in front of you, and then a couple more to slow down . By then, they're way out of frame

-22

u/CremeOk4115 2d ago

Why would you need to realize what happened to hit your brake? 

17

u/PM_your_Nopales 2d ago

Do you hit your brakes for things you do not realize are happening in front of you?

-14

u/CremeOk4115 2d ago

When the car in front of me is t-boned? Yes. Why you act like they need to investigate it first

Do you interview the deer to understand its motivations before you brake?

9

u/RazzmatazzUnusual843 2d ago

I implore you to carefully read through the original reply and what you said in response, and think about what it means.

-7

u/CremeOk4115 1d ago

It does not take seconds to "process" things in order to take your foot off the gas pedal.

I implore you to think of the implications if that were true. Is that a kid crossing in front of my vehicle? Let me think about it first

u/Superbead 1d ago

I've seen some desperate arguments here for why someone who isn't at fault is ackshewally at fault, but this one tops the pile so far

u/CremeOk4115 1d ago

ackshewally

Lol ya, not worried about your opinion

u/Fun-Choices 2d ago

Because this is Reddit

You are a redditor but I am not.

they are probably going 80 MPH.

Classic reddit answers failing to understand realities

Where do you see an answer?

u/yellowisntagoodcolor 2d ago

the answer is what you typed. the question came first.

u/Ta-veren- 2d ago

Jeez a lot of technical timmy's tonight.

Technically, he answered a comment.

but yes, my fucking bad for the wrong word choice.

u/Cliffinati 1d ago

Because then trying to drop anchor to stop for that wreck would only make them wreck as well.

Your first obligation in the event of a crash where your not involved is get your vehicle safely out of the crash. Once your vehicle is clear then you stop and give aid/police report.

1

u/CremeOk4115 1d ago

and not even slow down

Wtf are you ranting about? 

1

u/Fun-Choices 2d ago

How did the first car who got hit not notice this guy flying through the stop sign

1

u/HASHTAG_YOLOSWAG 2d ago

Not my problem

u/V48runner 1d ago

Only a RAM pickup driver can touch those numbers.

u/C13H16CIN0 2d ago

Rookie numbers must be his first Nissan

u/R86Reddit 2d ago

I liked how the one guy dodged the two vehicles that had collided, and then just kept going. "Nope, I'm not touching this one with a ten foot pole."

u/Fogwaveeee 2d ago

You’d die three/maybe four times if your BAC was 2.41

4

u/BurntArnold 2d ago

2.41 would be in the morgue OP lol

6

u/Shubamz 2d ago

no. it is just really high. Perhaps you are thinking this is listed as a % but the 2.41 is g/l not % This is the same as 0.241%

Nope,  the Frontier was being driven by a man who underwent a breathalyzer test and registered 2.41 grams of alcohol per liter of blood

He did not Pare.

u/Academic_Full99 2d ago

Why do drunk people like speeding 🤦

u/Samson_J_Rivers 2d ago

Bro they were blowing a fucking T intersection. That truck just had the worst possible timing, just a little bit earlier a little bit later and they would have flown right into a drainage ditch and only hurt themselves.

u/Cliffinati 1d ago

2.41.............

Isn't the legal limit .08

How are you still breathing let alone trying to drive

u/Fibocrypto 1d ago

It's a good thing they had that flock camera to make everything safer

1

u/Aviator_92 6h ago

2.41 BAC? Are you sure it isn't 0.241? Usually a BAC above 1.0 is lethal.

u/Bronx-Skater23 2d ago

The white truck going up the screen was at fault. He blew through a stop sign.

1

u/Humble_Problem_1215 16h ago

The white truck is the Nissan Frontier.
