In summer, Americans sport the red, white and blue. Keep festivities fun and safe.
Notice the increase in DUI arrests in the last two years on the Fourth of July weekend: for 2022, the California Highway Patrol made 998 DUI arrests on the Fourth of July weekend; in 2023, ABC10 News in Sacramento reported 1,224 DUI arrests were made for the same weekend.
Why can’t drinkers learn to be sober if driving? A drunken driver hit me when I was 16 in 1992. After 30-plus years I can walk okay, but my hearing is damaged and I have a deep tone to my voice. My life clearly changed.
People will drink, but it is illegal if you drive drunk. Have a sober driver transport you if you have one too many. Don’t drive drunk.
