Why Is MADD Pushing Ignition Interlock Devices?

lawrence taylor has a hunch:

[...] Take a look at MADD’s 2005 Annual Report.   On their list of "Corporate Donors", six corporations are listed as "Platinum Corporate Donors" — that is, donors of $100,000 or more.  The first is a telemarketing company, DialAmerica Marketing.  Of the remaining five, three are carmakers planning IIDs in their models:  Nissan North America, Daimler Chrysler Corporation  and General Motors Companies (makers of Saab).  See The Truth About Ignition Interlock Devices.

Follow the money.
