Offer To Be A Designated Driver For Family/Friends
While it can be fun, alcohol consumption is extremely dangerous. Drinking in moderation can help you feel comfortable in social situations, loosen up with your family and friends after a stressful day of work, or feel a little happier at dinner. But after a couple drinks, perhaps you’ve gotten a little bit too happy, and you’ve loosened up a little bit too much. You were drinking with some friends, but now it is getting late, and you should be getting home soon. Too many people in this situation decide to get in the drivers’ seat, believing that they are able to drive safely. Too many people in this situation end up ruining their lives and someone else’s. Drunk driving affects more than just you. Don’t let yourself or your friends ruin lives. In the future try taking turns staying sober. Next time your friends want you to drink with them, join them, but don’t drink. If you stay sober and let them drink, you will loosen up in the company of good friends. Then, at the end of the night, offer to drive your friends home. And if you are a real friend, you wont take “no” for an answer.
