- (377234) - Breathalizers
- (335315) - Have someone designated to drive and not drink
- (210223) - drink more so you cant see your car..lol
- (210216) - drink more so you cant see your car..lol
- (208031) - Have all new cars with a vapor sensing device that won't start if it smells alchole strong
- (191873) - Do like Norway or something, if you're caught drunk driving you lose your license for a year.
- (188136) - I think the drinking age should be lowered to 18. This isn't because I want to drink legally or anything, but so many people under 21 drink regularly. I just think that if the drinking age was lowered, the underage drinkers would take more responsibility. This isn't a guarantee but I believe it could help.
- (187345) - i don't know
- (181798) - punish according to the circumstance.
- (179910) - free taxi rides (government subsidies for the taxi companies), generate the revenue by increasing taxes on alcohol.
- (179889) - lower drinking age to 18 to make it not such a risky and exciting thing for that age group to partake in - then they can employ the use of things like 'the drunk bus' or a cab and not get into trouble instead of trying to get themselves home without getting caught and then driving drunk.
- (178188) - Have people that have breathalizers at parties and bars, so people know when they are over the limit to drive safetly.
- (178187) - there is none
- (178173) - tougher punsihments for those that do.
- (178139) - Solutions are hard to think of and enforce. It is extremely hard to stop people from doing something of their own free-will, especially if they are under the influence because they are already making sketchy decisions.
- (178137) - Should try to quit Drinking or drink at home
- (178127) - I think this has already been addressed to the best of its ability. I mean, what else could be done to keep drunks off the road than the severe punishing that is already there, and the knowledge of the damage that could be done to not only themselves but other innocent people as well.
- (178066) - Stiffer penalties than what exists today.
- (177995) - Fiercer punishment for drunk driving. Designated Driver Services in the cities. Education!!!
- (177990) - more public speakers in high schools and colleges showing the effects of drunk driving, by getting friends of people that have been killed in an accident. There are many friends of loved ones who have died that would be willing to do this sort of thing. A group of loved ones all sharing stories at a high school could effect the actions of students and prevent from more accidents happening.
- (177983) - Have harsher penalties, the U.S. lets drunk drivers off a lot easier than other countries.
- (177982) - A larger number of people to call and other options for people who decide to drink.
- (177980) - Kids/people should stop being dumbasses and try being more responsible.
- (177975) - enforce the law more... raise the penalty (add a penalty)
- (177969) - DON'T LET STUDENTS FROM MINNESOTA STATE UNIVERSITY, MANKATO DRINK..... THERE IS ALWAYS A PROBLEM WITH THAT THERE....DOSEN'T MATTER WHAT THE SITUATION IS.....ALL THE STUDENTS THERE ARE BOARD LINE ALCOHOLIC OR THEY ARE ALCOHOLICS.
- (177961) - not letting people drink and drive
- (177954) - have the bartender stop givng people drinks if they think that person has had to much
- (177952) - There is no complete fix.
- (177951) - Stricter enforcement on the roads
- (177948) - Increase the penalties of a DUI to the point where people finally realize its not worth it.
- (177947) - Make a HUGE fine for people who get in trouble.
- (177946) - I don't know.
- (177944) - I don't think there is something that would completely illuminate the problem, but i think there is a lack of education on the subject.
- (177942) - there isnt one.
- (177913) - nukes. nukes and abortion.
- (177902) - more education on driving under the influence and how it affects everyone, not just the driver or his passengers but also the people who are on the road with them.
- (177891) - Have a sober driver available when you are ready to leave
- (177888) - law enforcement
- (177882) - Cheaper alternative methods of getting home - cheaper taxis, more accessible public transportation, etc.
- (177868) - Better public transportation.
- (177866) - people need to have a designated driver
- (177854) - more laws
- (177819) - Real life situation awareness presentations
- (177815) - Harsher penalties for those who are caught drinking and driving.
- (177814) - I think a better transportation system available for people who are under the influence would help those who are out at the bars because the only option in most places is to call a cab and that's expensive so people just think they should drive. I also think every bar sould have a breathalizer available for people to use who have been drinking so they know if they are legally over the limit or not.
- (177754) - More education on the impacts and results of people who drink and drive. Many are misinformed and this could be a problem.
- (177751) - have a stricter punishment if caught!
- (177750) - I think having breathalyzers should be administered at bars if one is driving to see if they are to intoxicated to drive...that would be a small way to prevent some drinking and driving.
- (177747) - More cabs available and cheaper.
- (177742) - I believe the best solution to this problem is to get people more informed about the dangers of drunk driving and alcohol. This can be accomplished through seminars, fliers, posters, personal testimonies, newsletters, web logs, and public groups such as MADD.
- (177738) - put a breathalizer in cars connected to the ignition
- (177734) - Try to do more thorough education on the topic in classes, instead of various lame posters and obviously bogus statistics.
- (177726) - stricter punishment, longer jail time, higher fines, suspended license
- (177711) - stiffer punishment
- (177699) - More education.
- (177697) - Stricter laws
- (177694) - Harsher punishments to thoes who do drink and drive...and if it happens more then one time with an individual i think there should be SERIOUS consequenses (jail time, more then just a week)...around this town there is no reason people should drive drunk, we have so many accomidations that it is uncalled for.
- (177691) - there is no solution there are just to many stupid people out there.
- (177690) - More affordable sober driver options, "drunk bus is a good example". Bring back bar specials so people don't drink before the going to the bars, and potentially drive down town while intoxicated
- (177681) - Well, penalties are stiff, so making a harsher punishment wouldn't do it...um, education isn't a problem, ppl know its dangerous and against the law...i don't know. A lot of people get pulled over and police officers are very good at determining who is over the limit and who is not. I don't know of a better solution than what we have right now.
- (177680) - give your keys away before you even start.
- (177679) - Bigger consequences with the law.
- (177678) - Have better police enforcement.
- (177676) - Don't lower the drinking age.
- (177675) - To be honest I don't think there is a solution. People are always going to drink, and people are going to get behind the wheel after it happens. I think it's a person's responsibility to designate a sober driver.
- (177673) - larger fines, and more awareness on that it can happen to anyone, ie TV ads
- (177665) - um.. not really sure.. people make the wrong decision to drive.. the only way that it would chagne would be for people to remember that they can call sober cabs as well as taxis.
- (177663) - To be honest i dont know. People are going to find a way around whatever it is thats being done. People are just dumb like that. So just step it up on the awareness and and crack down on the law and really punish people for driving drunk and hope that it helps.
- (177662) - free cab rides home or some kind of drunk bus service in college towns
