The National Transportation Safety Board Seeks Lower Alcohol Limits, Finds Support from ASSE
The National Transportation Safety Board issued recommendations to tackle the problem of impaired driving. One of the most important recommendations, to lower the legal blood-alcohol limit to .05 percent, has received support from the American Society of Safety Engineers.
In the past several decades, awareness of the dangers of alcohol-impaired driving has increased. However, alcohol-impaired driving still accounts for approximately one-third of all U.S. highway fatalities.
