The intake of alcohol produces...
A)Increase in braking distance.
B)Reduction of the visual field.Correct
C)Reduction in braking distance.
Alcohol consumption affects the driver's psychophysical state, causing a reduction of the visual field. The tunnel effect occurs, which is when peripheral vision is lost and only the centre of the road is seen clearly (this effect occurs with speed in the same way). It also reduces reaction capacity, increasing the time it takes us to react.
The braking distance does not depend on the driver's abilities; it can vary depending on the following factors: - The speed at which you are driving.
- The condition of the tyres, suspension, and brakes of the vehicle.
- The vehicle's load.
- The condition of the pavement.
- The weather conditions of the road.
