Plan Properly for Your New Year’s Celebrations
Mother’s Against Drunk Driving officials urge to you plan ahead. Designate a sober driver to make sure you and all of your party guests get home safely after a celebration. Retrieve the number of a local cab service before you head out so you can have a safe ride home. You should also consider hiring a shuttle or limousine service to transport you and your friends from the event you are attending or arrange for a hotel stay for you and your friends.
