To further improve the accuracy of the predictions of the new model, we need to acquire more data like that from the Texas Transportation Institution. By comparing our results to an even wider variety of individuals, we could easily determine specific groups of people (i.e. certain weights, ages, etc.) that our program over or underestimates for, and alter our equations appropriately. Additionally, we need to find additional literature to confirm the rate equations we use in our model and allow us to account for blood flow between compartments.

A statistical analysis could be implemented to determine the probability of our prediction lying within the range of measured BAC values for subjects with similar inputs (age, height, weight, etc). Finally, to determine its significance to the accuracy of the predictions, the time step used in the program (one minute increments) may be shortened, allowing the efficiency versus accuracy to be studied statistically.
