CINCO DE MAYO SAFETY TIP SHEET
Cinco de Mayo has become a big night out for many, particularly young adults. But it is also a very dangerous night out because of alcohol or drug impaired drivers. Americans who drive while impaired on Cinco de Mayo make it a high-risk evening on the nation’s roadways. Over the past 5 years since 1999, an average of 43 percent of all highway fatalities each year on May 5 and overnight into the early morning on May 6 were caused by impaired drivers with blood alcohol content (BAC) levels of 0.08 percent and above, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
