When you are making your New Year’s Eve plans, please keep safety as a consideration. It is okay to have fun at New Year’s, but please do not drive after drinking. Even if you feel like you are fine to drive, please don’t make the mistake of getting behind the while after drinking. Your best option to take a taxi, or get a designated driver to carry you to the party. That way, there is no chance that you can drive back home. Don’t rely on your ability to determine if you will be okay to drive. The more you drink, the poorer your decisions become. The easiest way to avoid this is to plan ahead, and to take away the chance that you could drive.
The Costs of A Bad Decision
It is important to plan ahead because there are several things that could happen if you drink and drive. At worst, you could kill yourself or other people. At best you could face an arrest for DWI, which could affect your life for years to come. It is completely worth the cost of a cab to avoid thousands of dollars worth of expenses that come with a DWI charge. Even if you are fine to drive, the smell of alcohol on your breath will almost certainly result in you being asked to pull over for investigation at a DWI checkpoint.
We hope that you have a great, memorable New Year’s Eve celebration. Just be sure that you are being safe while you are having a good time.
