Is a tram driver allowed to drive after consuming alcohol (e.g. after drinking one beer), if he feels good?

Explanation

Correct answer: No

The law categorically prohibits operating any vehicle, including a tram, after the consumption of alcohol. This state, defined as a blood alcohol concentration from 0.2 to 0.5 per mille, constitutes an offence, and the driver's subjective feeling of well-being is of no relevance to the legal assessment of the situation.
