What Drugged Driving Research Data Reveals

Research highlights numerous risks associated with driving under the influence of drugs. Studies have shown that drugged driving impairs reaction times, coordination and attention, making it extremely dangerous.

Here are additional statistics that illuminate the severity of driving while high:

● Marijuana use has been linked to increased lane weaving, poor reaction times and altered attention to the road.
● Combining alcohol with marijuana results in even greater impairment and more lane weaving.
● Opioid use can cause drowsiness, impaired thinking and judgment and doubles the risk of a crash.
● In 2021, 13.5 million people aged 16 or older drove under the influence of alcohol, while 11.7 million drove under the influence of illicit drugs, including marijuana.
● Men are more likely than women to drive under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
● A higher percentage of adults aged 21 to 25 drive after taking drugs or drinking compared to young adults aged 16 to 20 or adults aged 26 or older.

Further, combining substances, such as mixing alcohol with marijuana or prescription medications, can exacerbate impairment and complicate the case for injury compensation.

Working with a law firm that understands these complexities and knows how to overcome them is essential for achieving a successful outcome.
