Labor Day: One of the Most Dangerous Weekends in the United States due to DWIs

🚨 Labor Day:

One of the Most Dangerous Weekends in the United States due to DWIs

Every year, millions of people across the United States celebrate Labor Day on the first Monday of September. It’s a long weekend to enjoy with family and friends, but it’s also considered by authorities to be one of the most dangerous times to be on the road.

📊 Why is Labor Day so risky?

National statistics show that during the Labor Day period:

  • Over 36% of traffic fatalities involve drivers under the influence of alcohol.
  • The risk of dying in an alcohol-related crash is more than 50% higher than on an average day.
  • The week of Labor Day has been identified as the deadliest week of the year for drunk-driving crashes, with more than 1,200 deaths in just the past 5 years.
