Youth Access To Alcohol
National Teen Driver Safety Week
October 14 - 20, 2012
Teens are at far greater risk of death in an alcohol-related crash than the overall population, despite the fact they cannot legally purchase or publicly possess alcohol in any State.
High-visibility enforcement of underage purchase, possession, and provision laws can create a significant deterrent for violation of youth access laws, reduce underage drinking, and decrease alcohol-related crashes. Additionally, parental responsibility is key to educating and protecting our teens. A new emphasis reminds parents to obey the law and help keep their teens safe.
