Question 7818

Does using drugs of abuse or illegal drugs affect road safety?

  1. Yes, because they significantly impair the driver's abilities.
  2. No, not at all.
  3. Only if the driver is not used to taking them.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, because they significantly impair the driver's abilities.

Yes. Drugs of abuse significantly affect drivers' perception, attention, decisions, and movements and increase the risk of an accident. Being used to taking them does not change the rule, because driving with drugs in your system is prohibited even if you feel fine.
