lcohol and traffic are two opposite terms—two parallel lines that should never meet. A driver is not expected to have even a little alcohol while planning to drive; it is unsafe, dangerous, and downright immoral. An intoxicated driver poses a threat to the lives of others aside from himself.While drunk drivers have taken innocent lives and destroyed properties in the past, this has not stopped people from drinking before driving, even while in traffic. And the end of such is predictable. Many times, when alcohol mixes with traffic matters, the resulting incidents are memorable enough to live on the internet for a long time.

Drunk Driver Drove on the Wrong Side of the Road with Confidence
Dramatic moment drunk M5 driver heads the wrong way down motorway
Dorothy Denny of Brendon, Worcestershire, England, decided for one reason or another to label October 4, 2022, “Vodka Day.” She drank for six hours straight, yet she was not satisfied with her level of intoxication. She decided to step things up by driving for 2.5 miles (4 km) to get more alcohol. Due to her state of inebriation, she took the wrong side of the road and drove confidently onward.A driver by the name of Milani, who realized that Denny was most likely driving under the influence, tried to alert other motorists nearby of a possible collision, but his effort was too little and too late as Denny crashed into an innocent driver who was on the right side of the road. The victim suffered a broken arm as well as bruising and whiplash injuries.Police got involved after the crash, and a blood test was conducted. It was discovered that Denny had 142 milligrams of alcohol in 100 milligrams of blood, while the legal limit was 80 milligrams (essentially, a 0.14 blood alcohol level, well above the 0.08 legal limit).
