If you find yourself too tipsy to safely get behind the wheel, give these folks a call for a free tow and ride home.
http://savvycities.com/aaas-tipsy-tow-program/The AAA offers this program in several states, you will need to check first to see if this is available in your area. Here in Nebraska we don't have this particular program, but in Lincoln and Omaha there are a couple of law firms that are working with local cab companies to give folks a free ride home. Check around to see if your community has such a program.
Have a safe and happy New Year! I will be staying home with a lot of really good beer. Too much ice on the streets and too many drunks on the road to suit me.
