Impaired driving is one of America's deadliest crimes. Despite all the attention, resources, and public policies that have been directed toward removing the impaired driver from behind the wheel of a motor vehicle, alcohol contributed to one-fourth of the fatal traffic crashes in Missouri in 2006. A total of 273 people were killed in more than 7,900 alcohol-related traffic crashes in 2006.

Safety experts say three in every ten Americans will be involved in an alcohol-related traffic crash at some time in their lives.
