NSW has three blood alcohol limits: Zero, 0.02 and 0.05.
These numbers refer to a person's blood alcohol concentration (BAC).
BAC is a measure of the amount of alcohol you have in your blood.
The measurement is the number of grams of alcohol in 100 millilitres of blood.

As such somebody consuming large quantities of alcohol can still be unfit to drive the next morning.
The human body can only process about one standard drink per hour, and alcohol concentration does not peak until 30 to 60 minutes after your last drink.

Body sizeA smaller person will have a higher BAC than a larger person because
the alcohol is concentrated in a smaller body mass.
Empty stomachSomeone with an empty stomach will reach a higher BAC sooner than someone who has just eaten a meal. Food in the stomach
slows down the rate at which alcohol passes into the bloodstream.
Body fatPeople with a lot of body fat tend to have a higher BAC. Alcohol is not absorbed into fatty tissue, so the alcohol is concentrated in a smaller
body mass.
SexAfter consuming the same amount of alcohol, a female will almost
always have a higher BAC than a male. http://www.mydr.com.au/addictions/blood-alcohol-concentration-bac
