WITH THE HALT LAW
WE CAN END DRUNK DRIVING.
We have the technology to end drunk driving deaths and injuries forever, but need your support to make it happen. Tell your members of Congress to protect the HALT Drunk Driving Law.
ANTI-DRUNK DRIVING TECHNOLOGY SAVES LIVES
HOW ANTI-DRUNK DRIVING
TECHNOLOGY WORKS
It will only do one thing: stop a drunk driver from killing or injuring other people or themselves.
The technology required by the law is intended to be 100% passive and private. But harmful inaccurate information online has put the HALT Drunk Driving Law in jeopardy. So, let’s separate the myths from the facts.
MYTH
It’s a ‘kill switch” that allows the government to remotely shut your car off.
FACT
The technology required by the law would only respond to an impaired driver. It uses technology to determine if the driver is drunk. If they are, the car will limit or prevent the car from operating.
MYTH
It compromises the driver’s privacy by storing and sharing your data.
FACT
This technology is just a safety feature like seatbelts or air bags. What happens in the car stays in the car. It will not store or share private data with anyone.
MYTH
It will make cars unaffordable, passing the cost of this technology onto consumers.
FACT
The cost of this technology is minimal compared to the societal cost of drunk driving crashes – $296 billion each year. Some of the technologies being considered are estimated to cost just a few dollars.
