Drunk driving still a leading cause of car accidents almost 11,000 motor vehicle deaths per year or one every 50 minutes. The economic toll from drunk driving accidents is also high, as it has been estimated that the average US $500 per year costs drunkenness. While increased DUI sets, more aggressive enforcement DUI laws and other legal measures helped to reduce DUI prices, do little to prevent these laws that drunkenness by ordinary criminals.

According to a study, an average drunk driver has driven drunk 87 times before a first arrest.

A new technological innovation presented by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) offers new hope that perhaps one day technology will be able, where the law does not have. U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood and national highway traffic safety Administrator David Strickland has just published a first look at a new driver alcohol detection system for safety (DADSS) technology designed to prevent that alcohol-impaired drivers of their vehicles while under the influence of alcohol. Montlick and Associates, attorneys at law, has represented those who suffer serious injury or wrongful death of drunk driving accidents in the Atlanta area and all Georgia over 27 years. We hope that this new technology can help the reduction of alcohol-related car accidents, especially those with drivers, are the usual culprits.

About a third of all people doomed are the drunk driving repeat offenders. The risk of death for drivers in single vehicle crashes with a high BAC is 385 times, which has not drunk of a driver. Drunk drivers who are repeat offenders have generally a high blood alcohol level as arrested, and the average BAC fatally injured drinking drivers is. 16. NHTSA research shows that drunken drivers in fatal accidents involved eight times more likely have had a previous conviction for DUI for drivers who had no alcohol in their bodies at the time of the accident.

During the technology yet developed, it is to be hoped that finally DADSS will prevent drunken drivers to drive their car if your BAC is at or above the legal noise limit (08 BAC or higher). The technology could be installed as an option for new cars. A version in the development determines the blood alcohol concentration of a touch based approach, while the other uses breath approach.

It it an unfortunate reality that for many ordinary drunk less than technology makes nothing driver it impossible to operate a vehicle under the influence of alcohol is effective to prevent driving while intoxicated will be. Hopefully this one day technology will save his life, and, can result in the total preventable injuries, from drunk driving related car accidents.
