A1Difficulty 3/5

Can drinking beer containing alcohol affect motorcycle riding?

Correct answer

Yes; alcohol can make the rider react more slowly.

Yes. Alcohol can reduce attention, precision and coordination and increase reaction time, so responses are slower. A lower alcohol content does not make a drink harmless for driving, and its effects are not limited to night-time.
