Drinking alcohol/drugs and driving

Nissan Maxima / Nissan Maxima Owners Manual / Starting and driving / Drinking alcohol/drugs and driving

WARNING:

Never drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Alcohol in the bloodstream reduces coordination, delays reaction time and impairs judgement. Driving after drinking alcohol increases the likelihood of being involved in an accident injuring yourself and others. Additionally, if you are injured in an accident, alcohol can increase the severity of the injury.

NISSAN is committed to safe driving. However, you must choose not to drive under the influence of alcohol. Every year thousands of people are injured or killed in alcohol-related accidents. Although the local laws vary on what is considered to be legally intoxicated, the fact is that alcohol affects all people differently and most people underestimate the effects of alcohol.

Remember, drinking and driving dont mix! And that is true for drugs, too (over-the-counter, prescription, and illegal drugs). Dont drive if your ability to operate your vehicle is impaired by alcohol, drugs, or some other physical condition.
