Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

--I'm not accustomed to kicking off my drinking at 11 in the morning. honest, so it came as a bit of a shock to the system to be downing the equivalent of three and a half pints in the space of 30 minutes -and not surprisingly it went straight to my head and knees.Apologies to Professor Rogers if! was talking garbage-you should hear me when I'm sober! about the benefits of truck simulators we'll return at a later date to do a full interview.

"On the first 'drunken' run I felt very obviously over the limit. My head was swirling and I had the devil's own job to concentrate on what I was doing. In fact, the run passed without any obvious incident, though I knew that a couple of the narrow sections of the route were driven purely on my experience rather than any sound spatial judgement.

"By the third run and considerably more alcohol my head had stopped whirring, but while I tried to convince myself! was fine my concentration was lacking and I found I could only concentrate intensely in very short bursts. The vehicle in front of me on the motorway seemed to be like a magnet pulling me closer.

"Having been up since 4am that morning and not had much to eat during the day,1 was frankly fit for nothing by the middle of the afternoon when the inevitahle hangover started to hit.There was only one thing for it... get down the pub for a couple of snifters before an early night!"
