SOME INTERESTING STATISTICS FOR YA TO PONDER....
~~EVERY 15 MINUTES someone is killed in an alcohol related crash.
~~Traffic crashes are the greatest single cause of death for persons aged 6–33. About 45% of these fatalities are in alcohol-related crashes.
~~Alcohol kills 6½ times more youth than all other illicit drugs combined.
~~There are 1.4 MILLION drunk driving arrests every year according to the FBI.
~~About three in every ten Americans will be involved in an alcohol-related crash at some time in their lives. (NHTSA, 2001)
~~One-third of DUI convictions are not first-time offenders, which shows most people do not learn from their mistakes.
~~During 2005, 16,885 people in the U.S. died in alcohol-related motor vehicle crashes, representing 39% of all traffic-related deaths (NHTSA 2006).
~~In 2005, nearly 1.4 million drivers were arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol or narcotics (Department of Justice 2005). That’s less than one percent of the 159 million self-reported episodes of alcohol–impaired driving among U.S. adults each year (Quinlan et al. 2005).
~~More than half of the 414 child passengers ages 14 and younger who died in alcohol-related crashes during 2005 were riding with the drinking driver (NHTSA 2006).
~~In 2005, 48 children age 14 years and younger who were killed as pedestrians or pedalcyclists were struck by impaired drivers (NHTSA 2006).
~~50-75% of all offenders are driving with a SUSPENDED LICENSE.
~~The average person metabolizes alcohol at the rate of about one drink per hour. Only time will sober a person up. Drinking strong coffee, exercising or taking a cold shower will NOT help. (Michigan State University, 2002)
~~Concerning the past 30 days, 50% of high school seniors report drinking, with 32% report being drunk at least once.
~~Youth who drink alcohol are 50 times more likely to use cocaine than those who never drink alcohol.
~~65% OF KIDS GET ALCOHOL FROM FAMILY AND FRIENDS.
~~Across people of all ages, males are four times as likely as females to be heavy drinkers.
~~More than 18% of Americans experience alcohol abuse or alcohol dependence at some time in their lives.
