Alcohol and drug impairment are estimated to be a factor in more than 47% of all fatal motor
vehicle crashes in Illinois. There is one alcohol-related traffic fatality every 39 minutes in the
United States. RSCs are designed to keep our roads safe by taking dangerous DUI offenders off
the road. This project was funded through the Illinois Department of Transportation.
