Alcohol Awareness for Your Safety

The most common risk young people take when drinking alcohol is having an accident. That is why Massachusetts RMV and other states focus on alcohol awareness in their written knowledge tests for permits and driver’s licenses.

When you drink, alcohol passes through your stomach and absorbs into the bloodstream. It quickly affects the nervous system and signals in the brain.

Alcohol is a depressant. It slows down sensory perception, judgment, and coordination. In other words, alcohol affects what you see, think and feel, and react.

How much effect alcohol has on the body depends on the alcohol concentration in your blood, which is why Massachusetts has set legal BAC levels.

For your RMV knowledge test, you must know the legal BAC levels in Massachusetts. It is a good idea also to understand the consequences of drinking and driving, including the implied consent law and what happens if you refuse a chemical test.

Take this quiz to check your current knowledge. It has 15 questions, and you get a “passing score” with 12 correct answers.

Everything you need to learn about alcohol laws in Massachusetts is found in the MA Driver’s Manual .
