Sunday is Super Bowl LIV, and many people are planning to party. Reporter Andrew Dieleman reminds everyone their game plan for the day should include getting home safely…
Whether people are attending parties or hanging out in a bar, planning for a safe ride home will be their best defensive move. Option plays include calling a cab or ride-sharing service, using public transportation, or lining up a designated driver in advance. Those who host parties should take care of the most valuable player, the designated driver, with plenty of non-alcoholic beverages. The California Highway Patrol will have a full team of officers ready to intercept dangerous drivers. In addition to stopping impaired drivers, they will be watching for seat belt usage, speeding, and distracted driving. If you suspect someone is driving under the influence, call 911. Be prepared to give the vehicle’s description, location, license plate number, and direction of travel.
