Drunk driving is a deadly and costly threat to Hawaii families. In 2021, there were 94 fatalities on state roads, and 30 percent of those (24) involved drunk driving. In addition, Hawaii incurred $580 million in economic harm due to motor vehicle crashes according to a 2019 analysis. Drunk driving is a serious problem that requires urgent action. Advancing .05 percent BAC legislation will reduce dangerous drinking and driving across all levels of impairment, including high BAC, to prevent deaths and injuries.
