Why is it that the reaction times to impaired drivers often doubles in response to situations on the road?

Your response time to a situation is determined by your ability to recognize a situation and in reflexes, in short a cognitive response followed by a motoric response. Decreased visibility and lessened ability to retain concentration probably account for the increased response time of impaired drivers.


Why are drunk drivers most likely to survive a car crash?

A possible reason is that, even if they are awake, their muscle reaction times are impaired and they do not reflexively tense up just before impact (i.e.: their bodies are in a 'looser' muscular state.

What is the name of the tissue that is impaired in myelosuppression?

The tissue impaired in myelosuppression is the bone marrow. Myelosuppression refers to a decrease in the production of blood cells (red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets) by the bone marrow, leading to decreased levels of these cells in the blood.

Which of the visual clues for the defensive drivers to spot on impaired drivers are?

Defensive drivers should look for several visual clues to spot impaired drivers, including erratic or swerving movements, sudden stops or acceleration, and inconsistent signaling. Additionally, impaired drivers may have difficulty maintaining lane position or exhibit delayed reactions to traffic signals and signs. Other indicators include unusually slow driving speeds or the presence of a driver who appears distracted or unresponsive. Noticing these behaviors can help defensive drivers take precautionary measures to avoid potential accidents.
