Video Transcript

"The campaign to eliminate drunk driving is a campaign that we have that we started actually last year. We believe within the next ten years, we will be able to with technology, with law enforcement, with education and legislation, that we will be able to prevent drunk driving totally within the next ten years. With that, we go in and we're having the pledge. We actually had this past weekend Senator Elizabeth Dole that signed our campaign pledge at one of the ceremonies that we had here in our state capital. We are working with high schools. It's part of the pledge program, too, can be used for prom. It could be used for homecoming and things like that, too, that people will pledge not to drink and drive, that people will go in, help find designated drivers, but the campaign overall are those four main pillars. Legislation, law enforcement, education, and support of all the other factors that we've got and all the programs that we've got as well. We go in, we believe that with some of the cool technology and with law enforcement. Here in North Carolina alone within the last year and a half we've had about forty changes to the laws as relates to underage drinking and drunk driving. And that makes more felony cases. It closed a lot of the loopholes that are out there as well, and so we believe all those factors together will help to make it the equivalent of polio, to wipe it out completely and so I'll have to find me a new job.
