This document outlines the history of the anti-drinking and driving movement from the 1800s to today. It discusses how in the late 1800s, alcohol was commonly consumed but was not yet regulated in relation to driving. The first drunk driving arrest occurred in 1897 in London. Throughout the early 1900s, laws around alcohol and driving began to emerge, including the Volstead Act in 1920 that enacted prohibition. Organizations against drinking and driving like MADD were formed in the 1980s, which led to nationwide laws in the 1990s setting the legal limit at 0.08 BAC and the minimum legal drinking age at 21. Drinking and driving continues to be addressed through various laws and advocacy groups today.
