I was getting around .18 reaction times, so I have now tried it again after 2 small bottles of beer (.33l) and I am now averaging around 0.26. Still well within the limit for driving and do not feel any effects at all, but it shows what even a small amount of booze can do.
Anyone able to translate that into extra stopping distances?
