That means if you are drinking, your blood vessels will come closer to the surface of your skin and open up for more blood flow. If you fall overboard, you have a much greater chance of dying from shock or hypothermia as your body loses core heat more quickly. * Drunk Drivers kill an average of 4.5 people and injure 125 people in Canada every day. * Approximately 40% of all traffic fatalities are alcohol related. * Approximately 70% of fatally injured impaired drivers had a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) more than twice the legal limit.
