• Stop Impaired Driving
  
  Despite the tireless efforts of thousands of advocates, impaired drivers continue to kill someone every 30 minutes, nearly 50 people a day, and almost 18,000 citizens a year. NHTSA and its partners are working together to put a stop to these deadly statistics. Join the fight against impaired driving. For additional information please visit www.stopimpaireddriving.org
