MADD Canada spelled out the dangers of impaired driving to Newfoundland and Labrador yesterday, speaking to students at St. Kevin’s High in the Goulds.
The President and CEO of the Newfoundland and Labrador Liquor Corporation, Bruce Keating, says society has made a lot of headway when it comes to discouraging people from getting behind the wheel of a vehicle when impaired.

He says there is still work to be done, especially with what he calls “cabin culture” and the kinds of decisions people are making on recreational vehicles.
Max Rurangwa of MADD Canada says he hopes students will learn the impacts not only as drivers, but as passengers.
“It is the main cause of fatal crashes with youth 15-24.”
