Steer Clear Campaign

EDM number 486 in 2009-10, proposed by Mike Hancock on 15/12/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Roads.

That this House commends the Steer Clear campaign, which encourages all seasonal revellers either to leave their car at home or to appoint a designated driver; furthermore congratulates the Portsmouth News for promoting the campaign, and the 43 pubs that have already signed up, promising to offer a free soft drink to the designated driver in a group of four or more between 6pm and 9pm; encourages the setting up of these initiatives countrywide; and expresses the hope that schemes of this kind will be successful in reducing the level of drink-driving and drink-related road accidents.

This motion has been signed by a total of 19 MPs.
