Drunk Driving Fatalities Down Except In 10 States
New federal data suggests that all but 10 states have seen a decline in drunken driving deaths- and our neighbor to the east is one of the ten states that
hasn't. In fact, the rate of drunk driving deaths in Idaho has
increased from 2007 to 2008.
Here's the story from Seattle's KIRO TV.Care to speculate as to what contributed to this increase in drunk driving fatalities in Idaho?

My best guess is a possible increase in population.... If folks from more populated areas lose their jobs and move back home, there's more people. But I don't know if Idaho has had a population increase or decrease....
But, it's the best I can do.
