As Valentine’s Day weekend approaches, the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute (ICJI) is reminding people to celebrate responsibly. While Valentine’s Day is one of the busiest times of the year for dining out, this romantic night can turn into a tragedy if someone gets behind the wheel after drinking.
Even a small amount of alcohol can affect driving ability. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reports that in 2022, alcohol-related crashes where a driver had a blood alcohol concentration of .01 to .07 resulted in 2,337 deaths across the nation.
