Too many lives continue to be lost in this country, and in our state, as a result of individuals who choose to get behind the wheel of their vehicles while impaired by alcohol or drugs. Driving with even just a tiny buzz on is not ok! The risk to the safety of every citizen, every family member, every family, and every visitor to Wyoming is real. We see far too many tragedies from impaired driving. These change lives forever, wound families deeply, and tear holes in our communities. We must identify and implement strategies that effectively reduce the number of impaired drivers in our state. This requires a dedicated and focused effort.
The Governor’s Council on Impaired Driving is vital to the efforts to reduce impaired driving in Wyoming. The Council has been effective in identifying issues and implementing strategies to address those concerns since its creation. Although much has been done, there is much more to do. The Council provides a forum for discussion, facilitates research, and implements strategies to reduce impaired driving in Wyoming. The work performed by the Council is a critical part of our efforts to enhance public safety.
