Do yourself a favor.

[fox1]

Its the Holiday season and time for celebrations of all types, when out hitting all the parties and enjoying family do yourself and your loved ones a favor and give up the keys if you have had a few to many.
Don't let this great time of the year become an anniversary date for your babies to put flowers on your grave.

Hope all of y'all have a blessed Holiday season and enjoy time with your loved ones.

Jaime...was that due to another driver amigo?? That's horrible!!


Not to derail, but I've found the adult beverage helps to keep composure & not have strangulations of otherwise certain normal family members who just go weird bat sheet crazy & irrational because of a stupid date / holiday?? It's these gatherings where I truly have to tune out, where any other visit is completely normal?? I just don't get it...we are supposed to be having a blast. Thank the good Lord for my wife & kids to help stay focused

What is it about the holidays that makes the same folks turn into complete nut cases for a couple days?? I swear, it's like a sceen with the Castanza's from Seinfeld some years.

Happy Thanks Festivus!!

Not another drivers fault, it was his. I believe he was peer pressured to drink (or possibly something else). He had been hanging around a new "friend" that was nothing but trouble and my cousin never drank or did drugs, he was on his last year at UTSA and about to graduate with mechanical engineering degree. Growing up poor helps aim high(but thats another story)

I don't drink. I 'm boring but I get to keep my truck keys.

Great advice. Also, put your phones away and avoid distractions while driving. It is every bit as dangerous.

Great thread. Thanks for reminding everyone , keep an eye out folks you never know. Look both ways even if it's a green light

[Dusty Britches]

True that. I lo st a few family members due to someone else drinking and driving.

Keep it between the mustard and mayo and out of the lettuce.

I haven't had a drink in almost a yr and don't miss it, now I try to be a DD on call for friends and family. Lost to many people due to either them or others getting trashed and getting behind the wheel.

This..... Just saw on the news a man died last night from this exact thing. Light turned green, he went and a police chase was coming right at him. T-Boned and that was the end. Sad deal.

Be safe everyone.
