If you suspect a driver ahead of you is impaired, a safe action is to:
- A.Tailgate them to read their plate up close
- B.Try to block their car with yours
- C.Race ahead and stop in front of them
- D.Keep extra distance, avoid passing closely, and report it safely to law enforcement when you can do so without endangering yourself
Correct answer
D. Keep extra distance, avoid passing closely, and report it safely to law enforcement when you can do so without endangering yourself
Why
Give an impaired driver plenty of room because their movements are unpredictable. Report from a safe distance or after pulling over, rather than using a phone while driving.
