Drinking and Driving

Open to everyone until Saturday, October 3

To keep it, print it while it is open.

Alcohol slows the brain’s signals, so a driver may react late to a pedestrian or a red light. Even one drink can make the road ahead harder to judge.

In the picture

  1. A glass in the center console: an alcoholic drink that can slow reaction time.
  2. The driver’s left eye: a delayed, fixed gaze that misses quick changes.
  3. A pedestrian’s foot on a crosswalk stripe: a person stepping into the car’s path.
  4. The brake pedal under the hovering foot: a foot that has not yet pressed down.

Examples

  • A driver waits a second too long before braking for a child on a bike.
  • A driver fails to notice a pedestrian stepping off the curb at night.
