Plan a safe ride home in Halloween season From Marla Marrs Frankfort, KY - To keep Kentuckians safe this Halloween season, Team Kentucky is reminding drivers to plan a safe ride home if festivities include drinking, and to watch for pedestrians. Follow these simple tips for a safe celebration:
According to the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet's (KYTC) Office of Highway Safety, last year in Kentucky, there were 3,486 highway crashes involving an impaired driver, resulting in 1,683 injuries and 113 deaths. In the week leading up to and including Halloween, 84 alcohol-involved collisions resulted in two deaths and 43 injuries. State transportation officials are partnering with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to remind motorists and pedestrians that if they are under the influence of any substance, they are not safe to drive or walk. According to NHTSA, approximately one-third of all traffic crash fatalities in the United States involve drunk drivers. "You may think you're okay to drive or even walk, but even one drink can impair your judgment and slow your reaction time," said KYTC Secretary Jim Gray. "With trick-or-treating activities planned in many communities, it's critical to watch your surroundings to keep everyone safe." For more information, visit nhtsa.gov/campaign/buzzed-driving.
