Statistics show that it is almost certain that you or someone close to you is likely to be involved in a alcohol related car crash, in fact in a family of five, theirs a 200% chance that one of you may cause or be involved in a alcohol related accident, that's a terrible statistic. Why do people still do it? I think some people may find it hilarious seeing their Friends driving drunk not thinking of the consequences because they are also drunk, or maybe its the pride thing commonly found in teenage boys where the "I'm all good bro" syndrome comes in effect. This is where the person thinks they are able to drive, but are so proud to admit that they are drunk after only having two drinks, they insist on driving to save them the embarrassment. Although two drinks doesn't sound like much that's enough to put a teenager over the B.A.C (Blood alcohol limit), which is only 0.05% compared to an adult in New Zealand being 0.08%. If you are eighteen and think you will be tested in the adult category while being breathalyzed think again, you must be at least twenty one to be considered an adult so be careful.
