Alcohol and Driving Impairment From the 1974 DOT Report
The 1974 DOT study Alcohol Drugs and Driving notes that clear object perception worsens at blood alcohol levels as low as .02 percent, with motion tracking and motor coordination affected at .03 percent. Low contrast targets and peripheral vision degrade around .05 to .08 percent, and overall brain processing time drops with alcohol. A future column will examine emotional factors in safe driving.
