What is the Holiday Season Drunk Driving Campaign

TessTess

The holiday season is about celebrating this time of year with loved ones and getting into the holiday spirit. Likewise, many people get behind the wheel impaired from celebrating this festive season. Although it is illegal to drive drunk in 50 states, it still occurs regularly each and every day. More than a quarter of all crash fatalities are alcohol-related fatalities. Alcohol, controlled substances, prescriptions, and over-the-counter medications can cause impairments. The Holiday Season Drunk Driving Campaign is designed to bring awareness to the dangers of operating a vehicle under the influence.

What Drivers Experience Under the Influence:

Similarly, campaigns titled Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over and If You Feel Different, You Drive Different; Drive High – Get a DUI were announced between December 2021-January 2022. Law enforcement agencies increase patrols around this festive time of year to decrease the likelihood of fatalities occurring.

How to Plan If You Are Going to Be Drinking This Holiday Season

By planning a ride to and from festive events this holiday season, you can reduce the toll of drunk driving this holiday season. Remember the legal BAC limit to drive is 0.8 which can still lead to vehicle impairment and cause you to lose control. Unfortunately, many drivers still operate a vehicle under the influence which causes serious collisions and even fatalities on the roads.
