Lindsay Lohan´s lawyers have their panties in a twist over an ad campaign run secretly by the American Beverage Institute which used Lindsay´s mugshot to strike back against those calling for breathalyser ignition interlocks to be installed on every car in America, thus making drunk driving a thing of the past.
The American Beverage Institute (ie, the liquor industry) feels that drinking and driving is a-ok, just so long as you´re not Lindsay Lohan, a sentiment that may have something to do with the fact that they stand to lose large amounts of money if people actually refrain from drinking before they drive.
Lindsay´s lawyer (judging by his language, one of the most awesome lawyers in the world) was quick to issue a statement on the topic, saying: "USA TODAY is idiotic for running such an irresponsible advertisement, suggesting that drinking and driving is some kind of American "tradition" we should protect. Not identifying that this ad was paid for by the liquor industry is profoundly reckless.
Drunk, old, white businessmen, drunk cougars out for girls night out, and drunk wedding parties should be kept off the roads of America. Lindsay Lohan fully endorses ignition interlock devices that have been well-proven to save lives."
Take that, evil liquor industry.
