Where was Mothers Against Drunk Driving started?

Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) was founded in 1980 in California, specifically in the city of Sacramento. The organization was established by a group of mothers, including Candace Lightner, in response to the tragic loss of Lightner's daughter due to a drunk driving accident. MADD has since grown into a national organization advocating for stronger drunk driving laws and promoting public awareness about the dangers of impaired driving.
