We know what it takes to end drunk driving, fight drugged driving and educate the next generation of drivers. But we still need help to reach the day that no one experiences a broken heart due to impaired driving.
Answering the call for help is at the heart of Mothers Against Drunk Driving’s mission. Whether you have questions about services, or need support after a crash, MADD cares about you and we want to help. If you or someone you know has experienced injury or was killed or experienced another kind of impact, you are not alone, MADD is here for you.
Behind every drunk and drugged driving statistic is a person whose life was full of family and friends, love and life, joy and laughter. Mothers Against Drunk Driving has several ways you can help create a future of No More Victims®.
At Mothers Against Drunk Driving, we’re focused on one goal: ending impaired driving for good. Since our founding, we've served as a lifeline for thousands of victims and survivors, and drunk driving fatalities have been cut in half — but we refuse to stop there. Together, we can end this 100% preventable crime.
On June 22, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and the Highway Loss Data Institute (HLDI) released a “Status Report” on the potential effect of legalizing recreational marijuana use on crash rates. The report found that highway crashes (based on crashes of all severities reported to auto insurers) increased by 3 percent overall in three states after the legalization of recreational marijuana use.
“MADD is outraged and absolutely heartsick that a driver allegedly impaired by drugs plowed into a sidewalk full of pedestrians in Times Square this afternoon, killing an 18-year-old young woman and injuring her sister and 21 others. Our hearts go out to the victims and their families and all of those impacted by this horrific crash. Today is a sad reminder that we have so much more work to do to keep our country safe from impaired driving. There is no excuse to ever drive while impaired by any legal or illegal drug and put the lives of innocent people at risk. MADD pledges to be there to support everyone impacted by this 100 percent preventable crime.”
