So, if you’re driving 2 cars, get pulled over, and blow a .10…
does that mean you’re off scot-free? You’re only doing .05 per car.
No, that’s a false conclusion. Actually, no people die, cause there’s no way to show there are 19 drunks driving.
I like the way you think, though, tsi.
How do you figure this? Not everyone who drives after having a drink kills someone, and not everyone who is killed in a traffic accident is done in by a drunk driver. In fact…
In 2005, 39% of total traffic fatalities were alcohol-related. Please note that the term ‘alcohol-related’ does not indicate that a crash or fatality was caused by the presence of alcohol in the driver’s system.
If a sober driver kills an alcohol-impaired pedestrian, it’s still considered an alcohol-related crash.
Therefore, the majority of traffic deaths involved drivers who had not been drinking.
And, as always, please remember the founder of MADD was convicted, well after starting this movement, of, (fanfare…) DUI.
