Research and statistics are core elements of Responsibility.org\u2019s commitment to inspiring a lifetime of responsible alcohol choices  offering proven strategies to stop impaired driving.  For more than two decades, Responsibility.org has tracked national trends in alcohol and substance misuse, drunk and impaired driving, and underage drinking. It has invested in the latest research to inform its programs, initiatives and policy recommendations and to be a leader and resource on the complex and evolving issues associated with alcohol responsibility, drunk driving and underage drinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
