The holiday season is here, and it is more important than ever to practice safe driving habits, especially as we saw many disturbing trends on our roads and highways in 2020. NHTSA reports between 2020 and 2021 there was a 10% increase in U.S. traffic deaths, with an increased incidence of .15 blood alcohol concentration. Further, almost 2/3 of drivers in serious and fatal crashes tested positive for at least one drug.
