Yes, here's how more than 5,500 people died and thousands more were in-,
jured last year because someone took one or two drinks, and then drove.
If you think you can drink and then drive safely you're simply courting
suicide or murder. You're drinking a toast to Death!
Statistics show that one out of every six drivers involved in fatal auto
mobile accidents had been drinking. Drinking drivers are three or four times
more likely to be involved in accidents. Tests have proved time and again
that a couple of drinks are sufficient to lower a driver's reactions to the dan
ger point. When quick action and alert judgment are demanded, the driver
who has been drinking fails.
If it were only the drinking driver himself who paid the penalty, that
would be bad enough. But when he cuts short the lives of other innocent
people riders in his car, occupants of other cars, or pedestrians caught
by his erratic driving that's manslaughter!
Don't smile when you read this, Mr. and Mrs. Citizen. The law
operates with a heavy hand on drinking drivers. It is going to be even
tougher in the future. It's serious business!
When you drink, don't drive. When you drive, don't drink!
