| impairment |
One of several terms used to describe the degradation of driving ability due to alcohol or other drugs. The term "impairment" usually connotes observable effects that are less severe than those associated with "intoxication" or "drunkenness." "Impairment" as a concept is less closely linked to alcohol specifically than are "intoxication" and "drunkenness"; in other words, "impairment" is a condition associated with any drug, including but not limited to alcohol.
