If you are enjoying the holidays with a drink of alcohol or drugs then it would not be a good idea to get behind the wheel of any vehicle. You may think that you will be ok but rest assured that just like your decision to drive is impaired so will your driving skills. Studies have shown that more than 30% of deaths on the roads could have been avoided if the drivers had been responsible enough to no take the risk of driving after getting drunk. Alcohol affects you in ways that you may not be aware of. Your concentration can be reduced and your vision can be hampered because o dizziness. There are drugs and medications that can cause drowsiness and affect the skills necessary for driving. Driving drunk is not only a bad idea but also a crime.
This so important,driving under the influence of alcohol can have fatal consequences.
