Maybe you could make it home aIl rigbt. You might, but what about innocent bystanders? Wbat about your family, your friends? Don't mess up other lives because of your mistake. Sometimesit's bard to resist drinking. Everyone's carefree and bappy, it doesn't seem wrong at the time. When it cornes time to drive home, just remember about responsible driving. If you're too drunk or forget about tbe danger, hopefully you have a friend wbo will remnember to belp you out. If you bappen to be that friend, remnember, don't let a friend drive and drink.
