The impaired driving statistics are horrifying. The danger is real – and it can wreak life-changing devastation anytime, anywhere, in the blink of an eye.The destruction ripples out, impacting two out of three people in their life time.
Montana has done little to reduce drunk driving starting on the first offense since the enactment of a .08 BAC per se law in 2003.
WAYS FOR MONTANA TO IMPROVE
- Pass an all-offender ignition interlock law with compliance-based removal.
- Legalize sobriety checkpoints and ensure they are conducted at least monthly.
- Enact adiministrative license revocation.
- Expedite warrants for refusing an alcohol test and require ignition interlocks or criminalize refusals.
It isn’t easy to watch the terrible effects of prescription drug abuse. However, too many Montanans watch those they love change; watch families being torn apart; watch them lose everything. YOU can make a difference in preventing abuse and help save our friends, families, and neighbors. Resolve to end prescription drug abuse in Montana.
