Impaired driving kills.
Sober driving solutions save lives.
Every 52 minutes, somewhere in the U.S., a person dies in an impaired driving car crash, according to the National Highway Transportation and Safety Administration. The causes of impaired driving are not singular, so neither are the solutions.
Integral to every solution is technology, lowering the instances of impaired driving. Ignition interlock devices, ride share solutions, and passive alcohol technology work in conjunction to end driving under the influence.
When installed, ignition interlock devices reduce recidivism rates by 70%, per the CDC. Ignition interlock devices save lives every day acting as the final line of defense before repeat DUI offenders drink and drive again.
Ridesharing apps including Uber and Lyft, as well as the expansion of public transportation, can lower the perceived need to drive while under the influence. Increasing access to these services allow people under the influence to get home safely, without getting behind the wheel.
“Police say the other driver, 18-year-old Vanessa Alvarado, admitted to drinking. Investigators also reported finding two open containers in her center console, and smelled alcohol on her person when they responded to the crash.” https://t.co/8HGKlPvgaf
