757 Sober Ride for St. Patricks Day Celebrations
757 Sober Ride St. Patrick’s Day Celebrations
St. Patrick’s Day celebrations in the United States extend as far back as the American colonial period. Today, it is one of our nation’s most popular holidays, celebrated with festivals, parades, and parties. These celebrations frequently feature themed cocktails and green pints, and the amount of alcohol consumed on this holiday is higher than average. People are more likely to make poor decisions as a result, including driving while intoxicated.
If you have been drinking in the Hampton Roads area, use a free or reduced Lyft sober ride offered by Drive Safe Hampton Roads to alcohol/drug impaired drivers throughout Hampton Roads on St. Patrick’s Day weekend. Go to www.DriveSafeHR.org/757-sober-ride for more information.
