Alcohol & drugs stay in your system for far longer than most people realise. The effects last for hours, slowing your reaction time by 25% making a huge difference to your stopping time. Never drink and drive. #ItsNotWorthTheRisk #Fatal4 #NoneTheRoad #ThamesValleyRP @tvprp

Alcohol can affect you differently each time you drink. Even if you feel fine, you could be over the limit. If you’re driving, stick to 0% and stay 100% safe. #DrinkALittleRiskALot #ItsNotWorthTheRisk #Fatal4 @THINKgovuk

If you think coffee will sober you up after you've had a few drinks, think again. Coffee is a stimulant while alcohol is a depressant, so a coffee may make you feel more alert but you'll still have the same amount of alcohol in your system. #ItsNotWorthTheRisk #Fatal4
