Correct answer
It can impair driving and increase risk even in small amounts.
Alcohol impairs abilities needed for driving and increases crash risk, including fatal crashes, even at low levels. Safety advice is to avoid alcohol when driving; that recommendation should not be confused with claiming that every amount is always legally prohibited for every professional driver. Observe the legal limit and other restrictions applicable to your case. Coffee and other stimulants do not speed alcohol elimination or restore safe driving.
