About the Project

Acknowledgments

The National Hardcore Drunk Driver Project is a project of The Century Council, an organization that promotes responsible decision-making regarding beverage alcohol and fights drunk driving and underage drinking.

A number of organizations and individuals assisted with the development of the National Hardcore Drunk Driver sourcebook. At its core is new survey information from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, American territories, and the Navajo Nation. The information was obtained through the offices of the governors’ highway safety representatives in each state. Without their help and that of the Governors’ Highway Safety Association, much of the information in this sourcebook would not have been available.

Crucial to the sourcebook were the insights and recommendations of its national advisory panel, an interdisciplinary group of judges, researchers, and professionals in the fields of alcohol abuse, law enforcement, and traffic safety. The panel’s counsel, the state surveys, and the most recent research on hardcore drunk driving guided its content.
