What the Impaired Driving Task Force is Doing

February 19, 2018

Groups like the Texas Impaired Driving Task Force and statewide coalitions are creating partnerships to attack the impaired driving problem from many different angles.

Educating

Texas is creating awareness about the impaired driving issue by educating its citizens through educator toolkits, courses, peer-to-peer groups and media outreach campaigns.

Enforcing

Texas is stepping up enforcement through Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) grants and impaired driving mobilization grants.

Collaborating

The Texas Impaired Driving Task Force meets several times during the year to discuss current projects funded by TxDOT, as well as the strengths and gaps related to deterrence (statutes, enforcement, prosecution, etc.), judicial issues, prevention (including media and educational initiatives), rehabilitation/treatment, and systematic challenges related to data collection and analysis. This task force allows members to discuss the different aspect of the complex process related to impaired driving and develop effective solutions.
