Correct answer
No: neither method guarantees rapid recovery for driving.
No. Coffee and a short nap do not accelerate alcohol elimination or guarantee recovery of driving ability. The body needs time, which varies with the amount consumed and other factors; there is no universal short waiting period. Feeling more alert does not show that alcohol has cleared or that driving is safe. After drinking, avoid driving and use an alternative; do not drink more alcohol to try to recover. Elapsed time alone, without knowing the driver’s actual condition, does not guarantee fitness to drive.
