When we talk about random breath testing, comparisons are made to other countries. One of the previous witnesses we had talked about how in Canada fatalities in 1981 were at 62%, and by 1999 they dropped to 33%. They're lower now. Comparing it with other countries isn't necessarily comparing apples to apples, because we have already reduced it, in large part thanks to groups like MADD and public education campaigns. We need to go lower. There is absolutely no doubt that we need programs to do that, but it's difficult to show the evidence that this one tool would solve the problem.
