This educational project is a collaboration between Diageo and the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR).
It is designed to help people to understand the consequences of impaired driving through speaking to people who made the decision to get behind the wheel after drinking or consuming drugs.
All stories are real and aim to help prevent other people from making the same mistakes.
Why impaired driving stories?We want people to understand that impaired drivers are often normal people who make catastrophic decisions.
The purpose is to show the effects that this decision can have on the individual and the people around them, helping viewers to consider what would happen if they were in a similar situation.
