Transcript of Friends Don’t Let Friends Drive Drunk this St. Patrick's Day
St. Patrick’s Day is a time
to get together with
friends and have fun.
Chances are, there will
be alcohol at any party
or event you attend.
Make sure you have a
plan for getting everyone
home safely.
Designate a driver to
make sure that everyone
gets home safely.
Make a plan to take
public transportation
instead of driving.
Host a party at your
home and allow your
guests to stay the night
so no one has to worry
about getting home.
Driving under the
influence can hurt or kill
you, your passengers,
other drivers, and
pedestrians.
DUI arrests can result in
fines, jail time, and even
the loss of your license.
A DUI conviction can
prevent you from getting
a new job.
Every two hours, three
people are killed in
alcohol-related crashes.
Alcohol-related crashes
cost American taxpayers
$32 billion every year.
4 million adults report
that they have driven
while intoxicated at some
point.
The best way to avoid a DUI
and keep everyone safe is
to not drink at all before
driving.
If you do decide to drink,
consider taking a taxi as an
alternative to driving home.
Remember, if someone
takes your car keys, they
are doing it to keep you
safe. Don’t insist on driving
if you have been drinking.
Every state has a blood alcohol content threshold of .08.
If stopped by law enforcement, you may be required to perform a field sobriety test and a breathalyzer test.
Your OC DUI attorney can help you understand what steps you need to take after a DUI arrest.
Even people who have
not been drinking can be
stopped on suspicion.
Stay calm and
cooperative, but be
mindful of your rights.
Remember that you can
rely on your OC DUI
attorney to provide a
defense if you are
unfairly charged with a
DUI.
Check with your local bar to see if they have a free food promotion for designated drivers.
Make plans to ensure your designated driver has fun while you are out on St. Patrick’s Day.
Be sure to have your OC DUI attorney’s number in case you or a friend needs help in a difficult situation.
