"Why you shouldn't drink and drive?" The answer as to why you shouldn’t drink, and drive seems apparent. However, it isn’t so apparent that the thought of doing so didn’t run through the minds of the thousands that died this year, and in the past by doing so.

If you can get past the numerous risks that come with driving while drunk, it is then time to consider whether you have the heart to put others in danger as well. Ask yourself, on a day when you are sober, do I want to take away someone else’s chance at a new day? Someone I’ve never met before, someone who could be on the way home to their expected children, to their expecting spouse, to their expecting pet. Does simply catching an Uber or a ride home from a friend present a more strenuous task than being made to answer to many lives you can potentially hinder while driving drunk? Whenever I frequent a party I don’t drink because I am aware that I need to drive home. Asking myself these questions keeps me focused on living to see tomorrow....
