Drive
Safely This Holiday Season
With the holidays upon us,
I would like to share a personal experience with you all about drinking and
driving after a "social session" with friends.
Well, this past
Saturday, we were out on a pre-Thanksgiving evening with long-lost friends. I
had a few cocktails, followed by a handful of glasses of vintage red wine.
Despite the jolliness, I still had the sense to know that I was over the limit.
That's when I decided to do what I have never done before: I took a cab
home.
Sure enough, there was a police road block on the freeway but,
since it was a cab, they waved us past. We arrived home safely without
incident. This was both a great relief and a surprise because I had never driven
a cab before. I don't even know where I got it from and, now that it is in my
garage, I don't know what to do with it.
