A driver with a blood alcohol concentration of .08 or more is considered to be alcohol-impaired (“Alcohol-Impaired Driving”). The higher the blood alcohol concentration levels are, the easier it is to be killed or injured. The driver is not only risking those around them, but the driver’s life too, depending on how much they have had to drink. Although a blood alcohol concentration level of .08 is officially drunk, impairments come after the first sip. After about two drinks, there is some loss of judgment with an altered mood and a feeling of relaxation and warmth. Small-muscle control and exaggerated behavior arrives shortly after the third drink. After the next drink, the BAC level has hit .8. Slow thinking, slurred speech, and reduced information processing capability are all different side effects of being intoxicated (“Impaired Driving: Get the Facts”). Every time an individual has been drinking, whether it has been one sip or five, they are highly capable of risking not only their lives but those around
