They aim to support people who have been victims of impaired driving and to educate us about the lethal consequences of driving while impaired. Please listen to this podcast, no matter your age, because drinking and driving crosses all age barriers. However, if you know a youth that drives, please especially encourage him or her to listen too. You can save lives. Sara Dimerman in conversation with Denise Dubyk.
