I
received the following from a dear friend of mine. It is something that we all need to consider,
not only during the holidays, but at any time that we are out having a 'good
time:'
"With
the Holidays upon us, I would like to share this personal experience with my
friends about drinking and driving. As
you know, some of us have been known to have brushes with the authorities from
time to time on the way home after a 'social session' out with friends. Well, two days ago I was out for an evening
with friends and had several cocktails followed by some rather nice red
wine. Feeling rather jolly, I still had
the sense to know that I may be slightly over the limit. That's when I did something that I've never
done before - I took a cab home.
Sure
enough, on the way home there was a police road block but since it was a cab,
they waved me past. I arrived home
safely without incident.
This
was a real surprise as I had never driven a cab before, I don't know where I
got it and now that it is in my garage, I don't know what to do with it."
