With Christmas and New Years already upon us, I would like to share a personal experience with my friends about drinking and driving.
We all know people who have had brushes with the authorities from time to time, often on the way home after a “social session” with family or friends.
Well, last week this happened to me. I was out for an evening with friends and had a few drinks followed by a couple of bottles of rather nice wine. Although relaxed, I still had the common sense to know I was slightly over the limit.
That’s when I did something I’ve never done – I took a taxi home.
Sure enough on the way there was a police roadblock, but since it was a taxi they waved it past and I arrived home safely without incident.
This was a real surprise to me, because I had never driven a taxi before. I don’t know where I got it, and now that it’s in my garage I don’t know what to do with it.
So, anyway, if you want to borrow it give me a call.
Merry Christmas, Happy New Year and be safe out there…
