Impaired Driving

Driving is a serious responsibility and drivers should always be wide awake, in control and focussed on the road. Alcohol, drugs and fatigue change the way people think, behave, and drive. This section has articles and information about the dangers of drinking or using drugs and driving, or driving while overly tired. It also offers tips on how to handle people who are about to drink and drive.
