Georgia State Patrol will join
national Take a Stand 1 drive
"Take a Stand! Friends Don't Let
Friends Drive Drunk" is the theme
for this December's National Drunk
and Drugged Prevention Month.
In 1993, 17.461 Americans died
in crashes involving drivers and
pedestrians imptiired by alcohol and
other drugs. Although high, this is
the lowest figure in 30 years.
A decade of combined efforts by
the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration (NHTSA),
media and many public and private
organizations and volunteers has
demonstrated that prevention works
to reduce impaired driving. The 3D
Month and other strategies are cred
ited with saving lives and reducing
both injury ;ind property damage.
The Georgia State Patrol is taking
part in this nation-wide effort to
emphasize the consequences of im
paired driving and "call to action"
methods to significantly reduce the
number of alcohol-related crashes
that claim thousands of innocent
lives each year.
The "Take a Stand" campaign
prompted recognition of alcohol
impairment at any level of blood
alcohol concentration (BAG) and
