U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood Stepping Down
By Jan Withers | January 29, 2013| 3 Comments | Filed in: General , National President

MADD is extremely grateful for Secretary LaHood’s leadership and his commitment to issues of highway safety during his time in office. He has truly been a leader in drunk driving prevention by supporting MADD’s Campaign to Eliminate Drunk Driving and demonstrating a willingness to find long-term solutions to drunk driving, such as the Driver Alcohol Detection System for Safety (DADSS). I have had the pleasure of working with Secretary LaHood on numerous occasions, and he is always a tireless advocate for saving lives and preventing injuries on our nation’s roadways. We wish him continued success and happiness in the future, and we look forward to working closely with his successor to make our roads safer for American families.

 David Strickland, Jan Withers and Ray LaHood

Secretary LaHood's pleas for distracted drivers to take some personal responsibility and not use phones while driving will have as much effect as Nancy Reagan's "Just say no" anti-drug campaign. We need enforcement and or laws with teeth for drunk and distracted drivers.
