Best Answer

Alcohol is a depressant. It stops normal brain activity and if enough is taken into the body, then it can interfere with reaction time (such as driving), judgement, and at lethal levels suppresses the brain's signals to vital organs. This leads to the organs not working like they are supposed to and leads to a life threatening situation.
