DOT Launches Campaign Against Drinking And Driving Secretary of Transporta tion Elizabeth Hanford Dole has launched a new public service advertising (PSA) campaign featuring music by recording star Michael Jackson to increase the awareness of the dangers of drinking and driving.

Jackson is opposed to the abuse of drugs and alcohol, and he feels strongly about making young Americans aware of the dangers of driqking and driving. “FATHER OF THE YEAR-1M4" - John L.

The campaign, called “Drinking And Driving Can Kill A Friendship,” uses PSA’s produced by the Advertising Council, in partnership with DOT, as part of the nationwide campaign against drunk drivers proclaimed by President Reagan two years ago. “The music-video approach, so popular with young people today, should be tremendously effective in getting the attention of young American drivers,” Secretary Dole said. The Ad Council is a volunteer organization of media organizations and professionals dedicated to publicizing public interest messages. The PSA’s have been sent to more than 800 television stations across the country. Radio and print versions are also available. “I am proud that in the past two years, we have witnessed a growing national movement to deter drunk driving,” Dole said. “A number of states have raised their drinking age limits and many jur isdictions have increased their law enforcement activities, stiffened penalties for convicted offenders and started rehabilitation programs.” Teenagers and young people (ages 16-24) are the primary target audience because this group is over represented in traffic accidents and deaths. Alcohol-related crashes are the leading cause of death for this age category. “Even though young Deople comprise only 20 percent of the licensed population and the total vehicle miles traveled, they are involved in more than 40 percent of all fatal alcohol-related crashes," the Secretary said.
