Ayvens España, a leading mobility and sustainability company, issued an alert about the dangers of alcohol consumption while driving. The company highlights that even an apparently small amount of alcohol can affect essential abilities for safe driving.
The example used by the company is that of a simple tinto de verano, which may seem like a light and harmless drink. However, the consequences while driving can be serious and cost up to 134,700 euros for the driver caught driving under the influence of alcohol.
This value represents the total cost that can result from an alcohol-related driving offense, including fines, material damage, increased insurance premiums and other associated expenses. The contrast between the minimum cost of 4 euros for the drink and this high value illustrates the economic and safety danger that alcohol represents on the road.
