Eighty-five percent of the time, there’re binge drinkers who’ve had four or more drinks in a night. In recent years, some states have stepped up sobriety checking points, designated driver programs and increased enforcement of the zero-tolerance laws. (8) Another strategy: in-car breathalyzers mandated for drivers who’ve been convicted of drunk driving. The CDC says these measures have helped to reduce drunk driving, though they say with 112 million cases last year we are still at risk on the roads.
