Fitness, distraction and impairmentStandalone practice
Why is choosing beer instead of wine or spirits not a reliable way to avoid alcohol impairment?
Correct answer: A glass of beer has about as much alcohol as a glass of wine
Why
Beer, wine and spirits can deliver similar amounts of alcohol in comparable standard servings. Actual serving sizes and strength vary, so the type of drink is not a safety test. If you plan to drink, plan a sober way home.
