Owner's Manual
Drinking and then driving
is
very dangerous.
Your reflexes, perceptions, attentiveness and
judgment can be affected by even
a
small amount
of alcohol. You can have a serious
--
or even
fatal
--
collision
if
you drive after drinking.
Please don’t drink and drive or ride with
a
driver
who has been drinking. Ride home in a cab; or
if
you’re with
a
group, designate a driver
who
will
not drink.
Control
of
a
Vehicle
You have three systems that make your vehicle
go
where
you want it to
go.
They are the brakes, the steering and
the accelerator. All three systems have to do their work
at the places where the tires meet the road.
Sometimes, as when you’re driving
on
snow or ice, it’s
easy
to
ask more
of
those control systems than the tires
and road can provide. That means you can lose control
of
your vehicle.
