Wyoming

Through a $35,000 grant from Responsibility.org and GHSA, the Wyoming Department of Transportation Highway Safety Program (WYDOT HSP) supported the Wyoming State Crime Laboratory’s Toxicology Unit by providing critically needed laboratory supplies to better identify impaired drivers.

For the sixth consecutive year, the Governors Highway Safety Association (GHSA) and the Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility (Responsibility.org) are awarding grants to help states keep Americans safe from the most dangerous impaired drivers.

In 2019, to reduce incidences of impaired driving, the Wyoming Department of Transportation recruited influential community members from throughout the state to help communicate an important, lifesaving message focused on ownership of your personal stretch of road.
