What the Virginia Motorcycle Operator Manual says about alcohol, drugs and fatigue

  • Alcohol and the Law

    If you refuse the chemical test, your license may be suspended for one year, whether or not you are convicted of driving under the influence. p. 23

  • Alcohol in the Body

    The alcohol concentration in your body depends on how much alcohol you drink, the time spent drinking and your body weight. p. 23

  • Alcohol in the Body

    Only time can sober you up; exercise, coffee, cold showers and fresh air don't. p. 23

  • Alcohol and the Law

    On a DUI conviction the court can revoke your license for one year for a first offense, three years for a second and indefinitely for a third. p. 23

  • Alcohol in the Body

    Alcohol also affects your field of vision, hearing, concentration, speech and balance; braking and steering take longer, you handle turns, stops and emergencies far worse, you see less clearly, and at night your eyes recover more slowly from headlight glare. p. 23

  • Stepping in to Protect Friends

    If you can't stop a friend who has had too much from riding, control the motorcycle: take the keys or temporarily disable it. p. 24
