Be responsible this festive season...

Now that the festive season is here, I would like to share a personal experience with you about drinking and driving. As you may well know, some of us have been known to have had brushes with the authorities on our way home from an occasional Christmas do over the years.

A couple of nights ago, I was out for an evening with friends and had 2 or 3 cocktails and a couple of glasses of Shiraz. Knowing full well I may have been slightly over the limit, I did something I've never done before ~ I took a taxi home. Sure enough, I passed a police booze checkpoint but, since it was a cab, they waved it past.

I arrived home safely without incident, which was a real surprise as I have never driven a cab before and am not sure where I got it or what to do with it now that it's in my garage.

A recent joint study

Tue, 2012-12-25 07:25

A recent joint study conducted by the Department of Health and the Department of Motor Vehicles indicates that 23% of traffic accidents are alcohol related.
This means that the remaining 77% are caused by assholes who drink bottled water, coke, soda, juice, energy drinks and shit like that.
Therefore, beware of those who do not drink alcohol.
They cause three times as many accidents.
This message is sent to you by someone who is a drinker and worries about your safety.  
 
 
But seriously be safe and have a great xmas!!
