For many visitors to the city, driving in New York may seem intimidating and dangerous. Yet once you understand how to navigate the intricacies of New York traffic, you’ll recognize it isn’t as chaotic as it appears and tends not to be dangerous unless a wildcard enters the scene — such as a drunk driver. Drunk driving not only increases the likelihood of car accidents, it also increases the severity of collisions; the Century Council explains that about 27 percent of driving fatalities in the state of New York are alcohol related. If you believe that the other driver appears to be under the influence, be sure to alert the police at the scene.
