The Effects of Drinking and Driving
Everyone knows that alcohol impairs reaction time. For
example, one study indicates that reaction time at a
blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% doubles from 1.5
to 3 seconds. Your job is to compile some probabilities
based on existing data to help convince people that it is
a really bad idea to get behind the wheel of a car after
consuming alcohol. It is also a bad idea to get into a car
with an individual who has had a few drinks.
