Various preventive measures have been shown to reduce the incidence of drunk driving:
Legislation: Strict laws and regulations, such as lower legal blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limits and zero-tolerance policies for young drivers. Enforcement: Increased police presence, sobriety checkpoints, and the use of breathalyzers. Public awareness campaigns: Educational programs that inform the public about the dangers of drunk driving. Technological interventions: Installation of ignition interlock devices that prevent a vehicle from starting if the driver’s BAC is above a certain limit. Community programs: Initiatives like designated driver programs and safe ride services.
