DID
YOU KNOW?
Effective May 1, 2009, if you are caught with a Blood
Alcohol Content (BAC) of 0.05 to
0.08 your license
will be suspended for
three to 30 days.
If you are over the legal limit, it will take about six hours
for your body to get rid of all the alcohol.

One in three people who die in alcohol-related crashes are under
the age of 25.
At a level of .15 your likelihood of being in
a collision where somebody dies increases by more than 65 times. |

2009 HIGH SCHOOL MULTIMEDIA PRESENTATION

This year MADD London sponsored the presentation in ten local
high schools. The feedback we received was phenomenal.
This really is a vital tool for teaching our youth the real
dangers of driving while impaired by alcohol and/or drugs.
It brings it up close and personal and it exposes myths and
misinformation about how deadly this can be. It shows that
the "it will never happen to me" mentality is false and that it
can happen to them.

Thank you also to the schools who paid for
their own presentation this year. We appreciate that you
take this topic seriously and are helping us to get the message
out. Stay tuned for next year's presentation, which will
be made possible from the funds raised for the Nick Pisciotto
Memorial Drive for Life Golf Tournament and our Strides for
Change walk.
Companies interested in helping us with
sponsorship should contact our office.
