Human factor: Alcohol, drugs, and medications
Explanation
The **consumption of cannabis** affects the driver's behavior in several ways that can be dangerous behind the wheel. One of the most significant effects is that the driver **needs more time to react**. This means that, in an unexpected situation on the road, the driver under the influence of cannabis may take longer to brake or maneuver, increasing the risk of accidents.
Additionally, cannabis can cause the driver to **lose concentration** and **misjudge distances**, which also contributes to an increase in reaction time. These combined effects make driving under the influence of cannabis extremely dangerous and it is prohibited by law.
