Correct answer: Their judgment and self-control suffer.
Answer options
- ATheir judgment and self-control suffer. Correct
- BThey can judge their own level of impairment more accurately.
- CTheir body gets rid of the alcohol faster.
Why
Rising BAC weakens judgment and self-control, which is why many drinkers believe they are fine to drive when they are not. Nothing makes the body clear alcohol faster; the liver breaks it down at its own steady pace.
