Annotation:

The meaning here is that two standard drinks is within the legal limit to drive in Australia, but having a third or subsequent drink could significantly impair the driver and lead to car accidents etc. Therefore, drinkers are asked to think very carefully after two drinks whether they should have a third, and so on.

In Japan, even one drink it too much to legally drive.

This poster says one beer will cost you 300,000 yen. (US$2,400)

All licensed drivers in the same car also will get fined, since they should have known better than to let someone drink and drive.


(My brother used to joke and say that you might as well have 3 beers, then it's only 100,000 yen per beer.)
