Impaired driving does not just put lives at risk, it can change your future. A DUI can lead to arrest, heavy fines, court costs, license suspension, and even jail time. Many people also face higher insurance rates and trouble getting or keeping a job.

One decision behind the wheel can follow you for years. Choosing a safe ride is not just about safety, it is about protecting your freedom and your future.

Impaired driving is preventable and deadly. In the U.S., about 32 people die every day in crashes involving drunk driving, and drug-impaired driving is also on the rise.

Even a small amount of alcohol or drugs can affect how you respond behind the wheel. Making a plan before you go out can protect you and everyone else on the road.

Impaired driving puts everyone at risk. Alcohol, ma*****na, and other drugs can slow reaction time and cloud judgment, even when someone feels “fine.”

One bad decision behind the wheel can change lives forever. If you plan to drink or use, plan a safe ride. Drive sober and arrive alive.

Ma*****na today is much stronger than it used to be. In the past, THC levels were often around 2 to 4 percent. Now many products are 15 to 25 percent THC, and concentrates can be far higher.

Higher potency means higher risk. Stronger ma*****na is more likely to cause anxiety, panic, memory problems, and dependence, especially for teens and young adults.

Understanding how much THC has increased helps people make safer, more informed choices.
