A person knowingly asks for a ride from a driver who has been drinking. Which statement matches the notice?
Only the driver can face penalties because the requester is not operating the vehicle.
The requester is protected from penalties whenever the trip is short.
The requester can face penalties only if a collision later occurs.
The requester can also face heavy penalties for asking that driver for a ride.✓Correct answer
Explanation
Shared responsibility extends beyond the person driving: someone who knowingly requests a ride from a drinking driver can also face heavy penalties. Not owning the vehicle or planning only a short trip does not remove the requester's role in enabling the drive.
