LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — One person dies every 45 minutes from a DUI, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Those lives lost in the valley are being remembered along a notoriously deadly highway while bringing awareness to the problem. A miles-long memorial is in the works along Kyle Canyon Road, dubbed the DUI Victim Memorial Highway, en route to Mt. Charleston. The nonprofit Stop DUI erects the annual tribute by placing signs along SR 157 with the names of people who have died at the hands of impaired drivers.
