This Independence Day, local communities across the country are supporting NHTSA’s national Buzzed Driving Is Drunk Driving awareness campaign.
Tips to Celebrate Safely
If you plan to drink, make a plan ahead of time for a sober ride home.
Even if you’ve had only one drink, let someone who hasn’t been drinking take you home. A sober driver is one who does not drink at all, not the one who’s had the least to drink.
If you’re hosting a Fourth of July gathering, help the designated drivers out by making sure there are plenty of non-alcoholic beverages.
Have a friend who is about to drive impaired? Take the keys away and make arrangements to get your friend home safely.
If you see an impaired driver on the road, safely pull over and call 911.
Always wear your seat belt.
