Who will you be cheering for during Sunday’s Super Bowl?
The Governor’s Traffic Safety Bureau and law enforcement partners are cheering for sober drivers. Whether you’re hosting a Super Bowl party or attending one, the Bureau says everybody has an important job: keep drunk drivers off the road so we can all make it home safely. This weekend, law enforcement across Iowa will be reminding football enthusiasts: Fans Don’t Let Fans Drive Drunk.
Looking at data from the past five years, 37% of Iowa’s traffic fatalities involve impairment. Nationally, 37 people die in drunk driving crashes each day.
Get ahead of the game now and create your winning plan. If you’re going to a Super Bowl party and you plan to drink alcohol, plan a designated driver. If you’re hosting a party, prepare plenty of food and non-alcoholic drink options. If you’re a designated driver, be the night’s MVP and keep that commitment front and center.
The Governor’s Traffic Safety Bureau works with city, county, state, and local organizations to develop and implement strategies to reduce death and injury on Iowa roads using federally funded grants.
