🚨 DRINKING & DRIVING: IT STARTS SOONER THAN YOU THINK 🚨
Alcohol affects your ability to drive long before you feel “drunk.” Here’s how Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) impacts judgment and driving:
🟡 BAC .02
• Slight loss of judgment, altered mood
• Trouble tracking moving objects
• Harder to multitask behind the wheel
🟠 BAC .05
• Impaired judgment and coordination
• Difficulty steering
• Slower response to emergencies
🔴 BAC .08 (LEGAL LIMIT)
• Poor balance, vision, and reaction time
• Impaired memory and concentration
• Difficulty detecting danger and controlling speed
🚫 BAC .10
• Slurred speech, slowed thinking
• Trouble staying in your lane
• Delayed braking
⚠️ BAC .15
• Major loss of muscle control and balance
• Severe impairment of vehicle control
• Inability to process critical visual and auditory information
👉 Every level of impairment increases risk.
👉 Every impaired drive is preventable.
If you drink, don’t drive.
Choose a sober driver. Call a ride. Protect lives.
