Question 7827
Although cannabis initially causes a state of euphoria, one of the main dangers of using it for driving is...
- that it increases the blood alcohol level, even without having consumed alcohol.
- that it decreases reaction time when facing an unexpected situation.
- that you may experience excessive relaxation, even drowsiness.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: that you may experience excessive relaxation, even drowsiness.
After the initial euphoria, cannabis causes excessive relaxation and drowsiness, one of its greatest dangers behind the wheel. You could end up with your eyes closed at a red traffic light, like the driver in the image. Also, reaction time increases, rather than decreases.
