Most big events involve some degree of drinking. It’s rarely a choice to drive home intoxicated. It’s not only putting you, your passengers, and other drivers in danger, it might just easily initiate an arrest for DUI. Don’t put yourself in that profession. Having limo services there to pick you up will remove that temptation you have to minimize your state of inebriation and “chance it.” Millions of people die on the highways each year, many of whom could possibly alive were it not for enhancing alcohol into the driving scenario. Don’t become a statistic.

Get a Ride

If you’ve known someone that has had a DUI, then you know how just how financially painful a DUI can be. Clearly, you should avoid a DUI at all costs! Consider how much cheaper and safer it is to take a taxi, bus, or heck, even a limo. By now you realize that you could take a dozen limousine rides and not spend nearly as much as a single DUI.

The best two ways to avoid a DUI are to either not drink or not drive. So let someone else do the driving.

We have lots of tips on getting around town without driving. Our first tips involve your phone.

Cellphone Tips

• Many phones these days come with GPS mapping you can use for directions. If your phone has this feature, learn how to use it to find your way home.

• It costs around a buck, but dialing #TAXI from your cellphone will get you connected to the nearest taxi anywhere in America and Canada.

This creates a perfect segue to our Taxi tips…

Taxi Tips

• Write your address down on a piece of paper and put it in your pocket. You can hand it to the Taxi driver who takes you home.

• Put a contact in your cell phone for the local taxi. Make the first character of the contact name a SPACE “ “ so it will appear first in your contact list.

• Be nice to your driver. Your driver may be saving your life.

Public Transportation Tips

Before you go out:

• Plan your route home BEFORE you go out. Write it down and put it in your pocket.

• Have whatever change, tokens, passcards, or money you need counted out and keep it in the same pocket.

• Don’t put anything else in that pocket. That’s your “Going Home Pocket”.

When you’re ready to go home:

• Remember that you made a plan and stick to it.

• Use your Going Home Pocket

There’s an App for That

• Ridesharing apps like Uber, Lyft, and Sidecar are available in many metropolitan areas. They offer a convenient alternative to the traditional taxi with better communication. Some let you rate and choose your driver.

• Check availability and sign up for service through one of these apps BEFORE you need to actually use it.

• Don’t wait till you’ve been drinking to enter credit card info for anything!

• Search for discount codes. You can usually find a discount code good toward your first time use of these apps/services.

• Enter your discount code when you sign up.

What if I’m drunk and I NEED to get home WITH my car?

Depending on where you live, there may be a “Designated Driver Service” available in your area that will come to where you are and drive you and your car home, usually for a fee. If these services are available in your area MAKE SURE YOU KNOW ABOUT THEM! Check out the National Directory for Designated Drivers and see if this valuable service is available to you.
