Impaired driving is driving a vehicle while impaired due to the intoxicating effects of recent drug use or drinking alcohol. Even small amounts of some drugs can have a measurable effect on driving skills. Impaired driving puts the driver, passengers, and others who share the road at serious risk. What is Impaired Driving? Which drugs are linked to impaired driving? After alcohol, marijuana is the drug most often found in the blood of drivers involved in crashes. Tests for detecting marijuana in drivers measure the level of THC (marijuana’s mind-altering ingredient) in the blood. THC can be detected in body fluids for days or even weeks after use. Several studies have shown that drivers with THC in their blood were roughly twice as likely to be responsible for a deadly crash, or be killed, than drivers who hadn’t used drugs or alcohol. Prescription drugs are also commonly linked to drugged driving crashes. In 2016, 19.7% of drivers who drove while under the influence tested positive for some type of opioid.

Some teens believe marijuana can’t be that harmful if states are legalizing it. Legal or not, one real risk is addiction. Drugs vs. Alcohol Effects of Alcohol & Commonly Misused Drugs on Driving Alcohol can reduce coordination, concentration, ability to track moving objects and reduce response to emergency driving situations as well as difficulty steering and maintaining lane position . It can also cause drowsiness. Marijuana affects psychomotor skills and cognitive functions critical to driving including vigilance, time and distance perception, reaction time, and lane tracking. Even a single marijuana cigarette can make it harder for a person to drive safely. It is the most common drug involved in auto fatalities . Drivers who have used cocaine or methamphetamine can be aggressive and reckless when driving. Opioids can cause drowsiness and impair thinking and judgment. Studies have found that being under the influence of opioids while driving can double your risk of having a crash. Points to Remember about Impaired Driving • Use of any alcohol, illicit drugs or misuse of prescription drugs make driving a car unsafe. • Teen drivers are 3 times more likely than more experienced drivers to be in a fatal crash. Impaired driving greatly increases this risk. • One in 10 teens in high school drinks and drives. • Almost 44% of drivers in fatal car crashes test positive for drugs. NEVER get behind the wheel of a car while impaired.

Drugs interfere with the way neurons send, receive, and process signals via neurotransmitters. Some drugs, such as marijuana and heroin, can activate neurons because their chemical structure mimics that of natural neurotransmitters in the body. These drugs lead to abnormal messages being sent through the neural network. Other drugs, such as amphetamine or cocaine, can cause the neurons to release abnormally large amounts of natural neurotransmitters or prevent the normal recycling of these brain chemicals by interfering with transporters . This too amplifies or disrupts the normal communication between neurons. Parts of the Brain Affected by Drug Use hippocampus brainstem tail of caudate prefrontal cortex basal ganglia extended amygdala Dopamine is the chemical ( neurotransmitter ) responsible for making us feel good and motivates many of our actions. Prolonged exposure to large amounts of dopamine can alter the way the pleasure center and other parts of the brain function.

All Rights Reserved. 94-6914 How Cocaine Disrupts the Normal Release and Reuptake of Dopamine • The basal ganglia forms part of the brain’s “reward circuit.” Drugs over-activate this reward circuit, producing the euphoria of a drug high. With repeated drug use, the circuit adapts to the presence of the drug, diminishing its sensitivity and making it harder to feel pleasure from anything besides the drug. • The extended amygdala plays a role in stressful feelings like anxiety, irritability, and unease. This circuit becomes increasingly sensitive with increased drug use. Over time, the person uses drugs to get temporary relief from their discomfort, rather than to get high. • The prefrontal cortex powers the ability to think, plan, solve problems, make decisions, and exert self-control over impulses. Shifting balance between this circuit, and the reward and stress circuits, make a drug user seek the drug compulsively . • The brain stem controls basic functions critical to life, such as heart rate, breathing, and sleeping, explaining why drug overdoses can cause depressed breathing and even death.cocaine dopamine dopamine receptors transporter blocked by cocaine buildup of dopamine overactivation of neuron destruction/loss of receptors over time normal reuptake of dopamine Transmitting Neuron Receiving Neuron vesicles with dopamine What is Dopamine? _______________________ _______________________ _______________________ _______________________ _______________________ _______________________ Explain How Drugs Work in the Brain _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ Parts of the Brain Affected by Drug Use The basal ganglia ______________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ The extended amygdala _________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ The prefrontal cortex ___________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ The brain stem ________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________________ Effects of Drugs on the Brain Source: National Institute on Drug Abuse; National Institutes of Health; U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. www.newpathlearning.com © Copyright NewPath Learning. All Rights Reserved. 94-6914How does alcohol affect the brain? People who drink are affected even before they show signs of being drunk, especially when it comes to decision-making abilities. At first, alcohol causes people to feel upbeat and excited. But if drinking continues, the effects on the body—and the potential risks—multiply. Here’s what can happen: • Inhibitions & memory: Inhibitions are lost - leading to poor decision making. People may not remember things they say and do while intoxicated. • Decision-making skills: People are more likely to be impulsive and may be at greater risk for making unwise decisions. • Coordination & physical control: Drinking leads to loss of balance , slurred speech , and blurred vision . • Death: to death . 1. Prefrontal Cortex Alcohol affects motor coordination and decision-making 2. Midbrain Alcohol affects the midbrain & limbic system - person loses control over emotions, increased chance of blackouts 3. Brainstem Alcohol affects heart rate, body temperature, appetite & consciousness; danger of slowed breathing, choking and death Alcohol continues to affect the brain and body long after the last drink has been finished. Alcohol in the stomach and intestines continues to enter the bloodstream, impairing judgment and coordination for hours.
