Question 317 in the bank

“Drinking alcohol impairs the driver’s ability to estimate distances and speeds”: Correct or incorrect?

  1. It is only correct for drivers wearing eyeglasses.
  2. It is sometimes true.
  3. Drinking alcohol impairs the judgment of young drivers only.
  4. Correct answer: Correct.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: Correct.

Alcohol slows the brain and disturbs vision and coordination, so it becomes harder to judge how far away an obstacle is or how fast an approaching vehicle is moving. This affects every driver, at any age, whether or not they wear glasses. Even a small amount can impair judgment, so feeling fine is no guarantee.
