A new poll by the Traffic Injury Research Foundation reveals that a significant number of Canadians are personally affected by drinking and driving crashes, making it a real cause for concern.

The public opinion poll conducted in September investigated how many Canadians had a family member or close friend who were involved in a drinking and driving crash.

According to the results, an estimated 7.5 million Canadians report knowing a family member or close friend who has been the victim of a drinking and driving collision, and an estimated 5.4 million Canadians indicate that they know a family member or friend who caused a collision because of driving after drinking.
