This PSA-style film from the late 1970s titled “Times 25” warns of the dangers of alcoholism, how to recognize the problem, and how the issue affects driving and leads to fatal accidents. Produced by KGO-TV in association with The California Traffic Safety Foundation, the film features clips of real-life accidents as well as staged scenes of profiles of people who can be characterized as “alcoholics.” Additionally there was collaboration with the California Highway Patrol, General Motors Corporation, International Driving School, Western Laboratories Inc, and The San Francisco Police Department in the making of the film. Narrated by John Edwards, the film is additionally a series of interviews with doctors, experts, and employees of the California Traffic Safety Foundation and even includes opening and closing segments by former president and then Governor of California, Ronald Reagan.
