Numerous anti-drinking and driving campaigns have claimed that driving while "buzzed" is the same as driving while drunk. While this claim is a matter of semantics, the truth is that any driving while under the influence of alcohol over the legal limit is considered drunk driving.

To prevent drunk driving accidents, individuals should take one of the following steps. First, whenever they plan on drinking in groups, they should assign one individual to be a designated driver. Second, if there is not a designated driver, then individuals under the influence should use public transportation or taxis.

The Wisconsin assembly passed a ban on texting while driving Tuesday. While the assembly provision is more severe than the Senate version, it is a sign that the state is closer to having an outright ban. 

If the ban eventually becomes a law, it will likely ban any typing on cell phones or computers while operating a motor vehicle. The law will likely reflect similar bans in 19 states across the country.
