YouTube Description

Friends..,

Drinking and driving is very often a lethal combination... The more you drink, the higher the risk to be involved in a road accident...!

Why Risk It ???

What does drinking do to your driving ?

Unlike food, alcohol doesn't digest but gets absorbed in the bloodstream from the small intestine, and less rapidly from the stomach and colon. The blood carries the alcohol to all important organs, such as liver, heart, brain - which co-ordinates all our activities, including those involved in drinking. That's why it's always better to avoid driving after drinking, otherwise you can experience the following effects of alcohol:

Your perception abilities are affected; you are less likely to observe traffic signs, bikers, pedestrians or cars coming from the opposite side;

You have less control on your reactions in traffic situations; your eyes are slower and they remain focused more time on the same object;

Your space perspective narrows; you tend to focus more straightforward and don't look to right or left;

Your reaction time increases and your reflexes diminish; it takes you more time to respond fast and adapt to the traffic stimuli;

You will find it more difficult to drive in a straight line;

You are less able to judge distances and speed;

You may have a tendency to be overconfident and put yourself in danger.
