“According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), in 2015 on average one American was killed in a drunk driving crash every 51 minutes. Alcohol-impaired traffic fatalities often spike on holidays and popular drinking days, like Super Bowl Sunday.
Data shows that states and regions with a team in the game can see drinking violations double or even triple. Last time the Patriots made it to the championship game in 2015, violations in New England were two times higher than the rest of the country on Super Bowl Sunday, and 103 percent higher than a usual Sunday in that region.”
