The Government believes New Zealand drivers aren't ready to moderate their drinking. We know they are. So take responsibility for keeping our roads safe by signing up: Two Drinks Max.

Dozens of students from around the country will be out in force from next weekend signing up people for the Herald on Sunday's Two Drinks Max campaign.
There will be 50 Students Against Drink Driving members from Auckland, Tauranga and Hamilton out on Saturday. The following weekend more students will be out in Christchurch and Dunedin.
SADD have put their full support behind the campaign, which encourages personal responsibility for drinking and driving, and pressures the Government to lower the adult drink driving limit from 80mg to 50mg of alcohol per 100ml of blood.
SADD national manager Anna Reid commended the Herald on Sunday for stepping up for social action.
"We don't necessarily have to wait for the Government to catch up with public opinion, we can shift that ourselves," said Reid. " The more people that sign up to Two Drinks Max, the more people that influences to adopt the same behaviour."
SADD recommends students don't drink before they drive.
