Explanation
Young drivers are especially at risk when using alcohol or other drugs because they typically have less driving experience and lower tolerance to alcohol. Even small amounts of alcohol can significantly impair their ability to drive safely. Crash data shows that drivers under age 21 are more likely to be involved in crashes at lower blood alcohol concentrations (BACs) than older, more experienced drivers.
