The Storefront Safety Council has been gathering raw data in the form of crash reports and other forms of documentation for almost a decade now. Our database is now well over 20,000 incidents, and the information gathered has enabled us to tell the story of storefront crashes in the US and Canada -- about their causes, the types of buildings and businesses that are struck, and the age and sex of the drivers involved.
Our current statistics show that in approximately 16% of all storefront crashes, impaired drivers are at fault. Whether alcohol or marijuana or illegal or prescription drugs, a little more than one in six crashes are a result of impaired driving.
This weekend, an impaired driver in Las Vegas crashed into the front of the Time Out Sports Bar. Police administered a breathalyser test and the result showed a blood alcohol level ALMOST DOUBLE the legal limit. It's not every day you get a single photo that shows cause and effect so clearly!
