Does the vehicle driver have a better ability to asses the risk on the road after using a small amount of drugs?
Description
§ 1 pt. 1c of appendix no. 1 to the Regulation of the Minister of Transport, Construction and Maritime Economy on the training of persons applying for driving licences, instructors and lecturers (Journal of Laws of 2012, item 1019).
Explanation
Correct answer: No
No. Taking a drug does not improve safe risk assessment. Psychoactive substances can impair attention, perception and judgement; some increase risk-taking. Feeling more confident does not mean being more capable of driving safely.
