Significantly impaired means that someone has been substantially compromised in their ability to perform some task. An example could be alcohol consumption; drink too much and a person will be significantly impaired in their mental and motor skills.
Alcohol can slow down an individual's reaction time, making it more difficult for them to respond quickly to unexpected events or emergencies. This can impair their ability to make quick decisions and take appropriate action in critical situations, increasing the risk of accidents or injuries. It is important to avoid drinking alcohol before engaging in activities that require sharp reflexes and quick thinking.

Alcohol affects the central nervous system by altering neurotransmitter levels and impairing cognitive functions. This can result in decreased inhibition, slowed reaction times, impaired judgment, and reduced cognitive abilities. Memory, coordination, and decision-making skills are often compromised when under the influence of alcohol.
