Research Paper

Thesis: Although we cannot completely eliminate this frustrating and often fatal issue, people should not drive anytime under the influence of alcohol, and drivers on the road must take precautions to avoid any possible incident involving drunk drivers; steps must be taken to lower the amount of drunk drivers on the roads.


Rough outline: 


1st blog-- BAC: What it actually means.  

  • What BAC stands for 
  • Worldwide, BAC driving limit IS the same (0.08 %)
  • How this limit actually applies to peoples' coordination and depth perception 
  • Anyone not of age & driving--> the immediate consequences 
  • How peoples' BAC can vary from one to another based on height & weight
  • Quote: "Being there is a legal driving limit for adult users, does not mean by any reason a person who has been consuming alcohol should just assume their 'OK' to drive, because it is likely they are not." 
2nd blog-- M.A.D.D.
  • What MADD is 
  • Who makes it up
  • What they support
  • ......?
3rd blog--Whiskey Plates: are they worth it?
  • Haynes says these plates serve a "sketchy" purpose
  • How they differ from a regular licence plate 
  • What is their main purpose ?
  • False accusation from drivers whom did not commit the crime?
  • Have been past discussions on whether they are effective or not.
4th blog-- Drunk Driving crashes 
  • Number of accidents caused by drunk drivers in the US yearly
  • Child statistics
  • What alcohol does to body & its effects on driving
  • Many put themselves at risk every year
  • Quote: "Although you may not drink, you may come into contact with someone who has been or is drinking." <-- TRUE!
