• Allow plenty of time to get to your destination.
• Don’t speed.
• Do not use your cell phone while driving.
• Buckle up and make sure children are in appropriate safety seats.
• If you plan on drinking alcohol, make arrangements for a designated driver before the festivities begin. A taxi cab, Uber or Lyft are good options for a safe drive home.
• Do not drive late at night. Leave the party early before the roads become more dangerous.
• Blood alcohol levels apply to boating as well as driving. If you are operating a boat, do not drink.
