Well over a third (38%) of U.S. traffic deaths during the Labor Day holiday involve drunk drivers (@NHTSAgov, 2018). This Labor Day, please #DriveSober. ☀️🌭🚔
The best way to play it safe over the Labor Day holiday is to always plan ahead. If you are going to have a drink, #makeaplan for a ride home. Drunk and drugged driving is deadly.
