GEICO Says Enjoy the Big Game in Moderation
Remember the following tips to help keep your evening safe.
- Avoid excessive celebration: The Big Game is an hours-long affair, so fans should pace themselves with adult beverages. Take a few timeouts from drinking, and have a bite to eat with some water.
- Declare yourself ineligible to drive: If you’ve had too much to drink, avoid getting behind the wheel at all costs. Plan to take public transportation, order a ride through a rideshare app or ask a sober friend or family member to give you a lift.
- Take one for the team: If public transit or rideshares aren’t options, assign a member of your group to be a designated driver before the party starts. Respect your designated driver and don’t cause distractions as a passenger. Remember to thank him or her for the ride.
- Referee your party: If you’re a host, keep an eye on guests. Never let anyone get behind the wheel who appears intoxicated. Hosts can also face criminal charges if party guests cause an impaired driving crash.
- Know what’s at stake: A DUI offense turns into more than just a fine. When towing/impound fees, court costs, insurance rate hikes and a lawyer are factored in, the final price can swell to more than
$10,000 according to theNational Highway Traffic Safety Administration . Drivers can also face more inconveniences such as a license suspension and the installation of an ignition interlock in their vehicle as a result of a DUI charge.
