William will discuss his upcoming broadcast segment, which looks at the recent changes to drunken-driving laws in British Columbia that have led to a roughly 50 percent decrease in alcohol-related fatalities. Could such reform be effective in the United States? Hari will also respond to your questions about the new show. Want further explanation about pieces you saw on air last week?
