The Missouri Coalition for Roadway Safety reminds motorists of the various options available to get everyone home safely. Designating a sober driver, calling a cab or using public transportation are just a few of those options.
In 2016, 177 people were killed and 641 were seriously injured in crashes that involved at least one substance-impaired driver. Many substance-impaired drivers are under 21. Missouri's Zero Tolerance Law states that drivers under 21 years old caught with even a trace of alcohol in their system will have their licenses suspended.
