Do not drive if you drink alcohol or with a hangover

If you go to bed drunk, your body almost does not metabolize blood alcohol, so when you wake up, you will be almost as drunk; do not drive.


In addition, we remind you that it is not necessary to be too drunk to have a traffic accident; even if you have consumed little alcohol, it produces disinhibition, that is, "you dare to everything".

Beware of “non-alcoholic” drinks, they really have it, in amounts of 1%, but if you take several…

Note that: 


  • Alcohol consumed during meals also affects, perhaps a little less, but very little, so do not drive.
  • There are no tricks to cheat in a breathalyzer test: not running, drinking water, candy, or eating grass!
  • Try, if you go out several friends to have drinks at night, that one of you does not drink, so that it is he who drives later.
  • Never ride a passenger in a vehicle, if you notice that the driver is under the influence of alcohol. It may be funny at the moment, but the consequences can be deadly.
  • Energy drinks do not counteract the effects of alcohol; You may feel more awake but, after all, you are drunk.


Are you looking to pass your driving test as quickly as possible? At A-Class Driving School we can help.


We offer a 1, 2 and 4-week intensive driving course as well as semi-intensive driving lessons for learners in Bristol, Avonmouth, and Southmead.
