Reports show that the incidence of DWI’s had decreased in
2007. This is based on the most recent and accurate reports
posted by the Missouri State Highway Patrol for alcohol related traffic
injuries and fatalities in 2006:
- Personal Injury Crashes – 3,524
It is important to remember that the fatality is not always the drunk
driver. When you drink and get behind the wheel-of-a-car, you are
risking the lives of other drivers on the road. Thousands of
people are injured and hundreds more killed in motor vehicle accidents
every year in Missouri that could have been avoided if the driver made
the responsible decision to stay out of his or her car and off of the
roads. Don’t be a statistic; don’t make someone else a statistic;
Don’t Drink and Drive!
