The **consumption of alcohol** while driving has several negative effects that increase **distractions at the wheel**.

- **Behavior:** Alcohol can make you feel falsely confident, leading you to take more risks and make mistakes that can cause accidents. It can also make you treat other drivers more aggressively or impulsively.

- **Perception of the environment:** Under the effects of alcohol, it is more difficult to see traffic signs and lights, correctly judge distances, and maintain attention on what is happening around you. Additionally, it is easier to be dazzled by the lights of other vehicles, which can distract you.

- **Movements and decisions:** Alcohol affects the coordination of your movements and slows down your reaction time. This means you may take longer to respond to situations on the road and are more likely to make incorrect decisions.

- **General effects:** Alcohol mainly affects the brain and vision, contributing to distraction and increasing the risk of traffic accidents.

For these reasons, the consumption of alcohol while driving **increases distractions at the wheel**, making it dangerous and not advisable.
