How the Alcohol Industry Steers Governments Away From Effective Strategies to Curb Drink Driving

Driving under the influence of alcohol, or drink driving, is a major risk factor responsible for 27% of all road injuries. This brief provides evidence that alcohol industry-sponsored drink-driving media campaigns fail to follow best practices for reducing road traffic crashes.

It covers why the alcohol industry, whose products undermine health and well-being, should not be in a position to steer governments away from effective interventions.
