Drunk Driving is it really a teen problem?

As more young drivers hit the road more people are concerned about young fatal teen car accidents. Most people will resort to underage drinking among teens to be the leading factor to car accidents. While teens do have the highest fatality rates in car crashes compared to other age groups they do not hold the highest drunk driving percentage. According to Mothers Against Drunk Driving (madd) adults from the age 26 - 29 account for 20.7% of all drunk driving cases that is the highest among any age group. Despite this fact that teens are viewed as one of the main offenders to driving while intoxicated.
