MADD Gives Washington 4 Out Of 5 Stars For DUI Laws
Submitted by Administrator on Mon, 01/20/2014 - 22:27
Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) just released their “Rate the State” Report. Washington improved from 3-Stars in the last report (in 2012) to 4-Stars in this report (2014).
This report is very similar to what they did in 2012, and rates states on the same five DUI criteria awarding a star for each one:
Ignition Interlocks for all Offenders
Sobriety Checkpoints
No Refusal
Administrative License Revocation (ALR)
Child Endangerment
The ONLY thing keeping us from attaining 5-Stars, and more importantly saving more lives, is the passage of Sobriety Checkpoints. This was a top recommendation from the Impaired Driving Workgroup. Please review the 2014 Campaign report and please feel free to share this with your staff, place on your website, etc.
