The body takes about an hour to rid itself of the alcohol in one drink.
No
amount
of
coffee
or
number
of
cold
showers
will speed that up. “I’ll be
careful” isn’t
the
right answer. What
if
there’s an emergency, a need to take
sudden action,
as
when
a
child darts into the street?
A
person with
even
a
moderate
BAC
might not be able
to
react quickly enough
to
avoid the
collision.
There’s something else about drinking and driving that many people don’t
know. Medical research
shows
that
alcohol in
a
person’s system
can
make
crash injuries worse, especially injuries to the brain, spinal cord or heart.
This means that when anyone who has been drinking
-
driver or passenger
-
is in
a
crash, that person’s chance
of
being killed or permanently disabled
is higher than
if
the person had not been drinking.
Control
of
a
Vehicle
You
have three systems that make your vehicle go where
you
want it to
go.
They are the brakes, the steering and the accelerator. All three systems have
to do their work at the places where the tires meet the road.
Sometimes, as when you’re driving on snow or ice, it’s easy to
ask
more
of
those control systems than the tires and road can provide. That means you
can lose control
of
your vehicle.
