As we look ahead, the message is clear: reducing drinking and driving requires more than enforcement alone. It requires informed decisions, responsible behaviour and a collective commitment from government, industry, communities and individuals. Through continued collaboration, AWARE.org and JMPD remain committed to working towards safer roads and reducing alcohol-related harm.

AWARE.org’s Q3 newsletter highlights progress in preventing underage drinking, promoting safer roads and supporting sober pregnancies. From school and community programmes to coordinated law-enforcement partnerships and FASD screening and referral, this edition explores how education, research and practical support are strengthening the response to alcohol-related harm. Discover the latest programme results, partnership milestones and priorities for Transport Month and the festive season.

The message is clear: drinking and driving cannot be addressed only during Transport Month or the festive season. Sustained enforcement, prevention and public education are needed throughout the year, supported by a shared commitment from government, law enforcement, industry, civil society and road users
