What should you do if you see a driver you believe to be impaired?

If you see a driver you believe to be impaired, the best action is to stay away from his or her vehicle. This is important for your own safety and the safety of others on the road. Impaired drivers may react unpredictably or erratically, increasing the risk of a collision. By maintaining a safe distance, you are reducing the likelihood of being involved in a dangerous situation.

Remaining clear of the impaired driver gives you time to react defensively if necessary and allows you to safely navigate around them if their driving becomes more erratic. Additionally, if you are in a position to do so safely, you can seek help by contacting law enforcement to report the impaired driver, ensuring that they can be addressed appropriately while keeping yourself and other road users safe.
