Memorial Day weekend is a time for honoring those who have served our country and celebrating the unofficial start of summer. Barbecues, beach trips, and family gatherings are common, making it one of the busiest travel weekends of the year.
However, with increased traffic comes a higher risk of accidents, particularly those involving alcohol. Driving responsibly and avoiding drunk driving are crucial for ensuring a safe and enjoyable holiday for everyone.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), approximately 28 people die every day in alcohol-impaired vehicle crashes. During holiday weekends like Memorial Day, these numbers often spike due to increased celebrations and travel.
The consequences of drunk driving extend beyond the potential for causing harm or death. If you are caught driving under the influence, you face severe legal and financial repercussions. These can include hefty fines, license suspension, increased insurance premiums, and even imprisonment.
Tips for staying safe
1. Before you start celebrating, plan how you will get home safely and designate a sober driver.
2. If you're hosting a gathering, ensure your guests have safe ways to get home. Offer non-alcoholic beverages and encourage the use of designated drivers.
3. If you see someone who appears to be driving erratically, keep a safe distance.
4. If you notice a friend or family member attempting to drive after drinking, step in and take their keys.
