An alcohol-related vehicle collision is more than twice as likely to occur on the weekend as during the week; almost 31% of drivers involved in fatal crashes on the weekend are reported to be legally drunk, as opposed to just 15% during the week.
According to a current report from the U.S. Task Force on Community Preventive Services, there is little evidence that designated programs actually reduce the rate of drunk driving and alcohol-related crashes, as few designated drivers actually completely abstain from drinking. The report concluded that in a great many instances, the least-intoxicated person is chosen to be the driver, which defeats the purpose of the program.
Underage drinking is a major cause of death that is related to young people and each year many adult youth die as a result of death due to motor vehicle crashes.
Alcohol affects all the organs in the body, particularly the liver, heart, and pancreas. It also affects brain functioning and, in extreme cases, can cause brain damage.
