How to Stop Friends from Drinking and Driving?
Inspite of frequent warnings and legal consequences like DWI drunken driving accidents continue happening endangering not only the lives of individuals driving the vehicle, but also the lives of those innocent people on road. Frequent among these is the underage drinking. It is indeed a very difficult task ahead to stop drunkards getting themselves and others into serious trouble and injury
Drunk After Party
Well, every effort to teach and make people aware of the consequences of drinking and driving and alcohol abuse are effective only to a limited extent. Number of initiatives by the federal government like field sobriety tests namely Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) Test, breathalyzer and penalizing the accused for any violation under DWI are not sufficiently effective.
Another way to stop such happenings lies in the hands of near and dear ones. The moment they are drunk, you know they are not in senses, hence as friends and loved ones do whatever is possible by you to stop them from handling the vehicle in a drunken state. This in fact completely solves the problem and avoids every chance of a drunken driving accident.
Hear from them….
See what people who have been through horrifying experiences of drunken driving have to say about it.
Social Drinking
“No matter what, never allow your friends drive home after they have indulged themselves into heavy drinking. You can offer to drive for your friend’s safety and for the safety of all others on road” – Jeffrey
“We as a couple have mutually agreed not to drink and drive. On those days when we go partying we fix up a driver who will take us back home safely. Thanks to our friend Annette who made sure we did not screw up thing after drinking” – Bernadette
“I get on to my nerves when I see my brother drinking and offering to drive the car back home…the sad part is that he never listens to anyone not does he care to take advices….the only way I found to stop him drive his vehicle is by putting away his car keys even before he could realize it and safely engage a cab to get back home…..Boy! It is definitely a huge task as my brother is highly systematic except when it comes to drinking” – Anne Stephens
Drunk
“Sam is a good friend of mine. He loves adventures and drinking and driving is his favorite hobby….not only does he bet on driving home back, it ensures he drives at a particular speed….imagine the danger…..many repeated warnings only proved futile…..finally I had to threaten him about calling the police….one of the days I had a police personnel coming over to a friends place, on a complaint lodged by me….I think that was the last time Sam spoke to me…….its been years since I met him…I am happy that I saved my friend and a lot of others on road atleast on that one occasion”- Steve
“It was my friend Julie’s birthday party and that was the first time I met Robin. He was a cool guy indeed, but a serious alcoholic. I was surprised to see him steady after close to 6 rounds of drinking. It was only then I realized that he was planning to drive back home all on his own. Nobody seemed to stop him, given that it was his routine to drive home back. Being a DWI counselor I was sure he would end up into some serious trouble. Just to gain his attention I complimented him and his car and asked whether it was okay if I could have a drive. I asked my friend Paul to follow me in his car, just to get a drive back to the place. And lo….Robin was unable to even walk upto his door, thanks to Paul… he helped me in putting Robin in his bed. Two days later I had called up a couple of other friends and also Robin for tea at my place and explained to them the seriousness of alcohol abuse, DWI and other legalities, Field Sobriety tests, penalties, fines and imprisonment. I really do not know how far it was taken, I atleast had the satisfaction of having done my duty”- Desiree
Drinking with Friends
“Do whatever you can to stop your son or daughter from driving while they are drunk. Even if amounts to putting them behind bars, is fine. It is any day better than loosing them for ever…like how I have lost both my son and daughter in a drunken driving accident…..you better be serious about it…..do not play with their lives…..after all they are your children” – Martina Gomes
Never be late in helping someone who is drunk and intends to drive. Peer pressure is one reason why some individuals end up drinking out of control. Inspite of the warnings in alcohol advertisements, people commit certain fatal mistakes endangering their lives and the lives of others. You save a number of lives by helping them. Do whatever you can. A small step is sure to save lives. Enjoy life by helping someone live.

Drunk driving has been an ongoing issue not only the U.S., but in many areas around the world. Various organizations have tried different things to prevent drunk driving, but this problem keeps going on and on. It seems that every time you turn on the news, there’s a report about a celebrity who’s been caught drunk driving. This problem as become acceptable in our society. Some of the ideas that have been brought up to conquer this drunk driving problem include:
* Passing laws that prohibit open containers in public places. Some states also have laws that prohibit open containers in cars. Whether or not these types of laws have prevented drunk driving is actually difficult to know.
* Special designation on the license plates of people whose driver’s license have been revoked or suspended for a DUI/DWI.
* Restricting nighttime driving for younger drivers.
* Monitoring repeat drunk driving offenders with electronic devices such as ankle bracelets or installing breath analyzing instruments in their vehicles.
* Requiring the government to provide more education in schools and information about alcohol and drunk driving to prospective drivers.
* Have more public service announcements on TV and the radio.
Perhaps more education, increased awareness and harsher penalties would probably be the best combination to prevent drunk driving. Moreover, creating a sense of social responsibility in our children could further reduce DUI instances in the future. Being consistent in advertising or literature is important in educating people on the dangers of drinking and driving. A one-time TV ad or newspaper article isn’t enough these days to convince people to stop their bad behavior!
