WARNING
NEVER drink or take drugs and
drive.
Drinking or taking drugs and
driving is dangerous and may
result in an accident and SERI-
OUS INJURY or DEATH.
Drunk driving is a contributor to
the highway death toll each
year. Even a small amount of
alcohol will affect your reflexes,
perceptions and judgment. Just
one drink can reduce your abili-
ty to respond to changing con-
ditions and emergencies and
your reaction time gets worse
with each additional drink.
Driving whilst under the influ-
ence of drugs is as dangerous
or more dangerous than driving
under the influence of alcohol.
(Continued)
(Continued)
You are much more likely to
have a serious accident if you
drink or take drugs and drive. If
you are drinking or taking
drugs, don’t drive. Do not travel
with a driver who has been
drinking or taking drugs.
Choose a designated driver or
call a taxi.
IGNITION SWITCH

INJURY or DEATH, take the fol-
lowing precautions:

tion switch or related parts.

cle movement can occur.
• NEVER reach through the
steering wheel for the ignition
