There is NO excuse for Drunk Driving. Even driving tipsy or buzzed is drunk driving! The best plan is to plan ahead for a designated driver to get everyone home safe. If you have too much fun this New Year’s Eve, please get a sober ride home. And note to parents: Teens are more likely to drive intoxicated on New Year’s Eve than on any other night, so please also make sure that your kids know that they can call you at ANY time for a sober ride home.
If you need to keep someone else from driving, do your best to convince them to not drive, and to give you the keys. Do not get into a physical altercation over the issue, but tell them that you are calling the police if they do not comply…and you MUST follow through. Lives depend on making that call if need be.
AAA is offering a FREE ride home for you and your car through their Tipsy Tow program. You do not have to be a AAA member to take advantage of this service.
