Drinking alcohol at parties presents many risks. One of the most dangerous is date rape. 

Date rape entails one person drugging another into unconsciousness and then forcing that person to engage in sexual activity against that person's will. Because of the nature of the crime, the penalties for date rape can be more substantial than traditional rape penalties.

Date rape usually occurs at parties when people are not paying attention to how their drinks are made or unaware that someone has put a drug in their drinks. Common signs that someone has taken a date rape drug include dizzyness, tiredness, and possible nausea.
