INJURIES

This represents, on average, the number of preventable deaths and injuries in alcohol-related crashes since November 15, 2021: the day the bipartisan HALT Act was passed mandating NHTSA to set a new auto safety standard requiring passive technology in all new cars to prevent impaired driving.
WE’RE COUNTING DOWN UNTIL AN IMPAIRED DRIVING PREVENTION SAFETY STANDARD IS SET.
NHTSA Must Take Immediate Action to Meet the Law’s Deadline: November 15, 2024
The Clock Is Ticking.
BY NOVEMBER 15, 2024
NHTSA must complete the process of setting a final standard for impaired driving prevention technology.
  • The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act gives NHTSA three years (from November 15, 2021) to complete a rulemaking process and issue a final safety standard for impaired driving prevention technology on all new cars.
  • Automakers then have two to three years to implement the safety standard.
  • New cars equipped with the NHTSA-directed technology should start rolling off the assembly line as standard equipment by 2026 or 2027.
  • The National Transportation Safety Board recommendation has called on automakers and NHTSA to prioritize the deployment of passive advanced impaired driving prevention technology and explore the use of technologies such as driver monitoring systems, many of which are available now.

Did you know?

PASSIVE DRUNK DRIVING PREVENTION TECHNOLOGIES

already exist today?

Driving Performance
Monitoring Systems

Monitor the vehicle movement with systems like lane departure warning and attention assist.

Driver Monitoring
Systems

Passively monitor the driver, typically using a camera or other sensors without compromising privacy.

Passive Alcohol
Detection Systems

Use passive sensors to determine if a driver is drunk. This lifesaving tech protects the public’s safety while
preserving the driver’s privacy.

DRIVING

IS KILLING DOZENS OF PEOPLE
EVERY DAY
  • Traffic fatalities are dramatically higher than they were a decade ago.
  • Drunk driving crashes account for almost one-third of U.S. traffic deaths.
  • In the U.S., someone dies in a drunk driving crash every 45 minutes and someone is injured every 2 minutes.

WHAT YOU CAN DO:
Urge your U.S. Senators, Representatives and the Department of Transportation to hold NHTSA accountable for meeting the November 15, 2024 deadline.
