“No person should suffer the tragedy of losing someone as a result of drunk, drugged, or distracted driving,” reads President Barack Obama’s December 1st Proclamation about this event. ” During National Impaired Driving Prevention Month, we recommit to preventing these incidents by acting responsibly and by promoting responsible behavior in those around us. Together, we can enhance public safety and work to ensure a happy, healthy life for all our people.”
Particularly during this festive season of holiday merrymaking, The White House is calling on Americans to avoid getting behind the wheel after drinking, and take action whenever a friend or loved one attempts to drive while impaired.
Also, we must remain vigilant against the thoughtless, dangerous habit of talking on the phone or texting while driving.
The Presidential Proclamation corresponds with local “The Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaigns in Arkansas and nationwide.
