The Reality of Driving Impaired

The consequences of impaired driving are life-changing—and not in a good way. The worst-case scenario? A collision that costs someone their life.

If you're caught driving under the influence, here’s what you could face:

• Immediate roadside prohibitions: 3, 7, or 30 days
• 90-day roadside prohibition or administrative prohibition
• Vehicle impound which can range up to 30 days
• Criminal charges, which may result in:
  • A minimum 1-year driving prohibition
  • A criminal record, affecting:
    • Employment opportunities
    • International travel

Impaired driving doesn’t just impact you—it can have devastating effects on others. By planning ahead, you’re taking responsibility and making a choice that prioritizes safety.
