Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes, beyond a certain amount it makes the driver react more slowly.
Yes. Beer has a low alcohol content, but its alcohol acts just like the alcohol in any other drink. Beyond a certain amount, the motorcycle rider reacts later and has more difficulty perceiving what is happening around them, such as other road users’ distance or speed.
