Driving While Intoxicated Endangers The Community

Drinking and driving can be deadly. Not only is it illegal, it unnecessarily places everyone in danger. It is well-known that driving while intoxicated impairs driving ability because it:

• impacts a person's judgment
• slows a person's reaction time
• affects a person's motor skills, such as hand, eye and foot coordination
• affects a person's ability to fully concentrate
• affects a person's vision

An intoxicated driver increases the risk of injuring or killing someone else. Don't risk it. Take a cab, call an Uber or ask a friend for a ride.
