Dear Mr. Rahm Emanuel,
My name is Fatima De Luna and I am a senior at Social Justice High School in Chicago. Recently I was asked to choose an issue that I am passionate about to research and take action on to change for the better. I chose to research the topic of Drunk Driving. I chose this because I had a personal experience and I never realized how big of this issue actually was. I am concerned with the amount of attention drunk driving his getting and hope to find out if you can work on way to lower DUI crashes and fatalities.
I found that Cook is the second county in Illinois with most DUI arrest and this information suggest that there not much attention on this topic. One suggestion I have is to not be lenient and be more stricter with offenders. An example of this is would be having more patrol cops out on a lookout for drunk drivers. This would lower the amount of people drinking and driving. Another example of a solution is to have more DUI checkpoints. I also found out that just in the year 2014 Cook had 349 arrest, and these are only people that got caught. I found that a driver has driven drunk on average 80 times before their first arrest.
These examples really important and please consider my research found at Alliance Against Intoxicated Motorists (AAIM). Thank you for your time and I look forward to hearing from you or a representative.
Sincerely,
Fatima De Luna
