Making an Informed Decision The Effects of Drinking and Driving Everyone knows that alcohol impairs reaction time. For example, one study indicates that reaction time at a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08% doubles from 1.5 to 3 seconds. Your job is to compile some probabilities based on existing data to help convince people that it is a really bad idea to get behind the wheel of a car after consuming alcohol. It is also a bad idea to get into a car with an individual who has had a few drinks. Go to the Fatality Analysis Reporting System Encyclopedia, which is online at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website (under Data). This encyclopedia contains records of all fatal car crashes for any given year. Click Run a Query Using the FARS Web- Based Encyclopedia. Click Query FARS data. You might consider reading the documentation provided to get a sense as to the type of data that can be obtained. Select a year you wish to analyze and click Submit.
