Plan Ahead for Safe Transportation
Making a safe transportation plan can help you ensure everyone stays safe on a night out. Before going to any event where alcohol is likely to be served, try securing a designated driver or taking advantage of alternative transportation methods such as ridesharing or public transportation. Having these measures before the night starts makes it easier to ensure you won’t have to resort to drunk driving.
Track Your Alcohol Consumption
It’s critical to keep track of your alcohol consumption if you want to avoid impaired driving. Awareness of how much you drink and keeping a steady pace throughout the night can help reduce the risk of getting behind the wheel while impaired. By understanding your drinking habits, you can make informed decisions about whether it is safe for you to drive or not.
Drink Water and Know Your Limits
Alternating between alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks is a great way to stay hydrated and prevent excessive consumption of alcohol. It is important to pay attention to your body’s response when drinking to know your limits for alcohol consumption to avoid issues due to overindulgence.
Be a Responsible Host
As a host, you play an essential role in promoting responsible driving habits and discouraging drunk driving. If you’re hosting a St. Patrick’s Day event, there are some crucial steps you can take to ensure your guests stay safe on the roads. Ensure non-alcoholic options are available and encourage your guests not to drink and drive by communicating these expectations.
