PLEASE TAKE A MINUTE TO READ THIS
The month of December is one of the busiest on the nation’s roadways,
and also one of the most dangerous, due to a high incidence of alcohol
and drug-related traffic crashes.
MADD HAS THESE TIPS TO HELP ENSURE EVERYONE'S SAFETY THIS HOLIDAY SEASON:
1.Designate a sober driver before celebrations begin;
2.Plan safe parties, including providing non-alcoholic drink options to
guests and not serving alcohol the last hour of the gathering;
3.Never serve alcohol to those under the age of 21;
4.If you’ve been drinking, use a taxi, call a sober friend or family member, or since we live in Hawthorne....WALK
5.If you see an impaired driver on the road, don’t hesitate to contact your local law enforcement;
6. If you know someone who is about to drive or ride with a driver who
is impaired, take the driver’s keys and help them make other
arrangements to get to where they are going safely.
Remember, impaired driving crashes are 100% preventable. Do your part
this holiday season by choosing not to drive impaired and help others do
the same.
