alcohol

Ethanol impairment of driving: blood/breath alcohol concentration (BAC) and its dose-response degradation of reaction time, lane-keeping, and divided attention; drunk driving and alcohol-attributable crashes. Strictly ethanol, distinct from cannabis (THC), opioids (opioid analgesics/heroin), illicit_drugs (stimulants and other illegal substances), prescription_meds (legal sedating medications), and polydrug (alcohol combined with any of these).
