WARNING!
Driving and Alcohol: Drunken driving is one of the most frequent causes \
of collisions.
Your driving ability can be seriously impaired with blood alcohol levels \
far below the legal
minimum. If you are drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking driver, call
a cab, a friend, or use public transportation.
Driving after drinking can lead to a collision. Your perceptions are less sharp, your
reexes are slower, and your judgment is impaired when you have been drinking.
Never drink and then drive.
