Correct answer
No; it does not rapidly remove alcohol already in the blood.
No. Food or water does not rapidly remove alcohol already in the blood or make driving safe. Food in the stomach can slow absorption and affect the peak alcohol level; this is different from eliminating absorbed alcohol. Water does not neutralise it either. Alcohol elimination takes time and varies between people and circumstances; feeling alert does not establish fitness to drive. If you have been drinking, do not drive and use a safe alternative.
