J Drinking and driving
WARNING
Drinking and then driving is very dangerous.
Alcohol in the bloodstream delays your reac-
tion and impairs your perception, judgment
and attentiveness. If you drive after drinking –
even if you drink just a little – it will increase
the risk of being involved in a serious or fatal
accident, injuring or killing yourself, your pas-
sengers and others. In addition, if you are in-
jured in the accident, alcohol may increase
the severity of that injury.
Please don’t drink and drive.
Drunken driving is one of the most frequent causes
of accidents. Since alcohol affects all people differ-
ently, you may have consumed too much alcohol to
drive safely even if the level of alcohol in your blood
is below the legal limit. The safest thing you can do
is never drink and drive. However if you have no
choice but to drive, stop drinking and sober up
completely before getting behind the wheel.
J Drugs and driving
WARNING
There are some drugs (over the counter and
prescription) that can delay your reaction time
and impair your perception, judgment and at-
tentiveness. If you drive after taking them, it
may increase your, your passengers’ and oth-
er persons’ risk of being involved in a serious
or fatal accident.
If you are taking any drugs, check with your doctor
or pharmacist or read the literature that accompa-
nies the medication to determine if the drug you are
taking can impair your driving ability. Do not drive
after taking any medications that can make you
drowsy or otherwise affect your ability to safely oper-
ate a motor vehicle. If you have a medical condition
that requires you to take drugs, please consult with
