Roadway fatalities have significantly increased as traffic safety enforcement has declined in the US. This period of historically low enforcement combined with alarming stats underscores the urgent need for states to implement comprehensive ignition interlock laws. Thank you to The New York Times for reporting on this important topic. IIDs serve as a critical line of defense against impaired driving, preventing 35 million attempts to drive impaired in the last decade (SAFE | Safety and Advocacy for Empowerment). Ignition Interlock Devices are currently the only proven technology to prevent someone who is impaired from starting their car and getting on the road. According to National Highway Traffic Safety Administration NHTSA, in states with full utilization of these devices, the number of fatal crashes plummeted by 26%. The technology itself is only one part of the solution. Legislative efforts are also crucial for states to provide safer roads for their communities. IIDs can and should be greater utilized by judges and policymakers to save lives. https://lnkd.in/gSXka7KK

As a Board Member of SAFE, we were proud to sponsor a day long pre-NCSL traffic safety seminar with state legislators. The discussion centered on the critical importance of model IID laws to protect our roads across the country from impaired drivers. Many thanks to our experts and panelists.
SAFE cosponsored a day-long traffic safety seminar for state legislators attending this week’s National Conference of State Legislatures annual meeting that included a deep dive look at the critical importance of each state enacting model ignition interlock laws for all drunk driving offenders. Addressing the ignition interlock session were Tara Leystra Ackerman of the National Transportation Safety Board, Pam Shadel Fischer of the Governors Highway Safety Association, and former Maryland General Assembly member Bill Bronrott.

National Transportation Safety Board issues Safety Alert on dangers of marijuana for teen drivers following a crash that killed six high school girls in Oklahoma two years ago. The alert coincides with a report from the investigation of the crash that determined the 16-year old driver, likely impaired by recent use of marijuana, failed to completely stop at a stop sign and then turned left in front of an oncoming semi-trailer loaded with gravel. “There’s a perception that in states where it’s legal that it’s safe and legal to drive impaired on marijuana,” said NTSB Chairwoman Jennifer Homendy. NTSB urges parents nationwide to protect their teen drivers from the consequence of impaired driving through education and communication. https://lnkd.in/e_jsPEC4
