To promote and take an active role in the development of a new state law, such as a sleeping-driver homicide amendment to Washington state's Vehicular Homicide statute. This amendment would send a strong message of accountability for a drivers actions behind the wheel of their car when they chose to drive while knowingly fatigued. It would, more importantly, bring a sense of justice to the survivors of the victims; To present credible and useful information through multiple links, articles and reports in an effort to create awareness for our communities and lawmakers as to the dangerous and widespread problem of driving while fatigued; To obtain contact with other individuals and families who desire the same common goals of educating the public, raising awareness and changing state law concerning fatigued driving; To work with law enforcement to raise public awareness as to the dangers of driving while fatigued and to utilize their knowledge, experience and available statistics for tracking accidents. This assistance would provide a clearer picture as to accidents and fatalities that are caused due to driving while fatigued; and To make it clear that we are no longer willing to accept the fact that drivers are not held responsible for the devastating, fatal effects caused due to their driving while knowingly fatigued.
