Throughout the months of June and July the Bedfordshire and Luton Casualty reduction partnership promoted the anti-drink drive message.

When thinking about the hot summer months, you usually think of Beer Gardens and Barbecues.  Alcohol goes hand in hand with this, and you’ll find people probably drink more than they normally would as it is spread out throughout the day.

The campaign consisted of posters; radio adverts and stands providing information and mocktails (non-alcoholic cocktails) with recipes to give an alternative to alcohol or normal fizzy drinks.

A third of recorded drink driving collisions across Bedfordshire and Luton happen during summer.
