Ronald Reagan

“ Each of us can help reduce the senseless carnage on our highways by refusing to tolerate drunk and drugged driving and by becoming more aware of what can and ought to be done. We must insist upon efficient and effective criminal justice, find improved ways to detect and stop impaired drivers before a crash occurs, and increase our willingness to communicate our concerns to friends and family.
Of increasing concern is the combination of alcohol and drugs and its impact on the incidence of motor vehicle crashes. ”

“ We should all be aware that driving after the use of drugs-including prescription and over-the-counter drugs-may create safety hazards on our roads and highways, and that combining drugs with alcohol increases these hazards. ”

“ If we hope to realize our goal of eliminating intoxicated drivers from our streets and highways, we must continue the positive momentum of the last few years and resolve to do even more in the future. ”
