Have you heard about an “in-car breathalyzer”\u00a0 that drunk driving offenders install in their vehicles that prevents drunk driving? Not some of the time \u2013 all of the time. Every time. The vehicle doesn\u2019t move a single inch.<\/p>\n

Ignition interlocks, as they are called, have prevented more than 1.77 million drunk driving attempts and are more effective than license suspensions. What we cannot know for sure is how many lives these devices have saved. But if the number is more than one \u2013 and we know it is \u2013 then MADD is grateful.<\/p>\n

Will you join with us today by giving $5?<\/strong> We are asking 5,000 people who believe in a future of No More Victims\u00ae to step up to make it happen.<\/p>\n

It is heartbreaking to hear stories of people who would have been spared the devastation of a crash or the loss of a loved one if the protection of ignition interlocks had just been in place sooner. Ignition interlocks grant us the ability to limit the destruction.<\/p>\n

Last year, we achieved amazing success. Vermont passed an ignition interlock law. So did Maryland and the District of Columbia \u2013 all in one year. Today, 28 states and the District of Columbia offer the protection of interlocks for all offenders.<\/p>\n

But that still leaves 22 states – and all the innocent people who live there – without protection from repeat offenses.<\/p>\n

The finish line is closer than ever before. Help us cross it?<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
