In the past I’ve been skeptical about some of the things that MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) has done to prevent drunk driving. I’ve often wondered whether or not their programs are working considering drunk driving still continues to this day. However, this time I’m going to share with you MADD’s latest initiative and then I’ll let you decide for yourself whether or not it will be effective…
MADD in Florida has started a new program called Traffic Observation Program, or T.O.P which will consist of teams of two who will be on the road observing traffic to report signs of possible impaired driving. The observers will have specialized training that includes classroom instruction and a minimum of six hours of ride-a-long training with certified DUI officers. They will observe all traffic laws and will make no effort to stop or interact with the subject vehicles – basically all they will do is report suspected drunk drivers to the Sheriff department. These volunteers will be patrolling at night from 10 pm until 1 or 2 in the morning.
