Introduction
Although drunk-driving fatalities have fallen by a third in the last few decades, drunk-
driving crashes still claim more than 10,000 lives per year [as cited by the NHTSA].
As you can see, the problem is far from being over. More and more general awareness 
and public responsibility are still needed to keep this issue at bay in the best possible 
manner. Maybe, this presentation can come to your aid.

Steps to Prevent 
Drunk Driving
• If you are planning to drink, plan on not driving. Sort out an 
alternative beforehand.
• If you drink, do not drive. Use public transport.
• If someone you know has been drinking, do not let that person get behind 
the wheel. Take their keys and help them arrange a sober ride home. 
• If you see an impaired driver on the road, contact local law enforcement. 
Your actions could very well save someone’s life.
Being a responsible 
driver is simple: If you 
are drinking, do not drive.
