Alcohol and its consequences
Drunk driving is a danger that many people underestimate. Problems can occur from just 0.5 per mille, as the ADAC statistics show. In 2023, 18,884 people were involved in alcohol-related accidents in Germany, 198 of whom lost their lives. These numbers illustrate the high risk that drunk drivers pose to themselves and others. It's alarming: 72 percent of the affected car drivers had a blood alcohol level of more than 1.1 per mille. These high levels in particular lead to a drastic impairment of concentration and perception. How ADAC emphasizes, the combination of alcohol and medication is particularly dangerous.
A common misunderstanding is how to deal with residual alcohol, which is often underestimated. The body breaks down around 0.1 per mille per hour - a slow process that means that many people are still unable to drive even after drinking a few drinks. Violations of the alcohol limit are accompanied by legal consequences, which can include fines or imprisonment as well as the revocation of a driver's license. In particular, novice drivers and people under the age of 21 must adhere to an absolute ban on alcohol to ensure their safety and the safety of others.
