Mothers Against Drunk Driving are MADD!
In 2007, an estimated 12,998 people died in alcohol-impaired traffic crashes involving a driver with an illegal BAC.These deaths constitute 31.7 percent of the 41,059 total traffic fatalities in 2007.
Wow, 13 thousand Americans needlessly died last year due to drinking and driving!
Alcohol-related crashes in the United States cost the public an estimated $114.3 billion in 2000, including $51.1 billion in monetary costs and an estimated $63.2 billion in quality of life losses.
Wow, over 100 billion dollars WASTED due to drunk drivers, every single year!
Now, what if there was something else that was worse than drunk driving? That killed more people and wasted far more money? And what if the government did nothing about that? Worse yet, the government actively prevented a solution ? In fact there's at least one, can you guess what it is?
