Police records show that almost 40 percent of all motor

vehicle-related deaths involve alcohol. In most cases,

these deaths are the result of someone who was

drinking and driving. In recent years, more than

17,000 annual motor vehicle-related deaths have

been associated with the use of alcohol, with about

250,000 people injured.

For persons under 21, it is against the law in every

U.S. state to drink alcohol. There are good medical,

psychological, and developmental reasons for

these laws.

The obvious way to eliminate the leading highway

safety problem is for people never to drink alcohol and

then drive.

Medical research shows that alcohol in a person’s

system can make crash injuries worse, especially

injuries to the brain, spinal cord, or heart. This means

that when anyone who has been drinking — driver

or passenger — is in a crash, that person’s chance of

being killed or permanently disabled is higher than if the

person had not been drinking.

Control of a Vehicle

The following three systems help to control your vehicle

while driving — brakes, steering, and accelerator. At

times, as when driving on snow or ice, it is easy to ask

more of those control systems than the tires and road can

provide. Meaning, you can lose control of your vehicle.

Adding non-dealer/non-retailer accessories can affect

your vehicle’s performance. See Accessories and

Modiﬁcations on page 5-3.
