The woman who founded MADD left the organization in the 1980s when she realized it had shifted to being a neoprohibitionist movement. She subsequently lobbied on behalf of alcohol producers and bars.

There are some who would like breathalyzer ignition systems required in every car. There are some who want 0.03% BAC to be the standard for drivers and 0.01% for bar employees (including bands and strippers). I think Sweden’s DWI standard is 0.01%.

I believe in Sweden that you lose your driver's license for LIFE after just one DWI. I hear people take taxis and use designated drivers who really imbibe only non-alcoholic drinks.
