Drunk Driving Quiz

The level of impaired driving is not dependent on the type of drink one consumes, as every alcoholic drink includes ethanol, the impairment agent. Other alcohol types including isopropyl (rubbing alcohol) is used for medicinal purposes only. Butyl and methyl are only used for industrial purposes.

A five-ounce glass of wine, one shot of liquor, or one bottle of beer all contain the same amount of ethanol. It’s not the type of drink that affects impaired driving, but the volume of alcohol in a drink and the frequency with which alcohol is consumed, among other factors.
