According to 9 News, a recent report indicates that tragic teenage fatalities due to car accidents are steadily increasing. The Governors Highway Safety Association researched the deaths of 16 and 17year old drivers through the first six month period of 2011 and discovered an 11 percent increase over the previous year. This increase is believed to be because more teenage drivers are thought to be on the road due to recent economic growth. Also attributed to the accidents are driving programs that are becoming less effective as the years pass. Not all states saw an increase, however, some state’s data saw a decrease or no change at all. Even though this study only covers six months of data, the results prove to be a cautionary tail for all young drivers to take their driving responsibilities seriously.

Denver Drunk Driving Victims lawyers

According to FOX 31 News, around 10,000 fatal DUI related crashes occurred in the year 2011. In an attempt at reducing this number, a new program aimed at lowering the number of repeat driving while drunk offenders is pairing DUI victims with people who have been arrested for DUI offenses. The Mothers Against Drunk Driving foundation is hoping that weekly seminars can reduce the likelihood of being arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol a second or even third time. The benefit of having victims or family members present at these seminars will be to share stories and experiences in order to avoid future tragic accidents related to alcohol. DUI offenders are court appointed to attend these meetings and often report feeling a new connection with their hosts. These seminars are offered in both English and Spanish and will hopefully educate and minimize repeat offenses.
