In recognition of this National Impaired Driving Prevention Month, Attorney General Ashley Moody is urging Floridians to be safe and never drive impaired. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s latest nationwide data reveals that someone dies in a drunk driving accident every 39 minutes — that’s about 37 people every day. During December, drunk driving accidents increase. Last year, there were 507 alcohol-impaired crashes in Florida during that month alone — more crashes than any other month. Attorney General Moody is sharing tips with Floridians on how to stay safe this holiday season. 

Attorney General Ashley Moody said, “In December, there is an increase in drunk driving accidents. These accidents ruin lives and can destroy families. The good news is they are 100% preventable. It’s simple, never drink and drive – instead, designate a driver, or use a ridesharing service. Follow this simple advice and we can all enjoy a happy, safe holiday season.”
