AND MANY OTHERS THAT WORK TOGETHER ON VARIOUS LEVELS TO PREVENT DRINKING, DRIVING, AND THE COSTS TO OUR COMMUNITY DUE TO GENERAL ALCOHOL USE.
For the children
We are currently reaching out to non-profit organizations who advocate for safe transportation standards to involve local schools by giving education-based lectures/seminars, to teach our youth about the dangers they can face behind the wheel, and what they can do to decrease the numerous costs to society as a whole that are caused from alcohol conumption, as well as the dangers of underage drinking.
Community Outreach
We are currently in the process of making a stand with local regulatory agencies to help reduce government over-regulation on private enterprise, which increases the local job market, keeps consumers and residents safe, stimulates economic growth, and provides the community with an invaluable service that puts people before profits.
We have taken this a bit further by contacting state and federal regulatory agencies as well to have a unified code of conduct for designated driving services as subcategory to the transportation industry to make a safe way home a viable option for anyone who cares enough to find an alternative to drinking and driving, no matter what their financial status or situation. This will also require those advertising as a designated driver to register with an National Directory of Designated Drivers, as we already have, voluntarily.
Future goals
Establishing a national self-regulating agency for designated drivers that holds a high code of ethical conduct as well as proper measures for violations of this code. Members of this agency would include oversight committees that would require members of government, alcohol industries, transportation industries, and the legal field, to ensure decisions made are fair and unbiased.
Through our research, self-regulation has, in fact, proven more effective in creating a positive impact on society in every aspect than government regulation has the ability to do. It also works faster when violations do occur to change any problems presented and in a more civil manner.
