Summary

Directs the Secretary of Transportation to make grants to States which adopt and implement programs to reduce traffic safety problems resulting from persons driving while under the influence of alcohol. Limits the receipt of such grants to three fiscal years and sets forth the Federal share payable for each successive year. Requires the Secretary to establish criteria for the grants based on areas of consideration provided under this Act. Authorizes appropriations from the Highway Trust Fund for fiscal years 1983 through 1985. Directs the Secretary to issue regulations to implement such traffic safety programs after a period for public comment. Sets the effective date of such regulations, unless they are disapproved by either House of Congress.
