At the Holiday Season, Take A Taxi Home When Drinking
With Christmas and Hanukkah close upon us, I would like to share a personal
experience with my friends about drinking and driving. As you know, some of us
have been known to have brushes with the authorities from time to time, often
on the way home after a "social session" with family or friends.
Well, two days ago, this happened to me. I was out for an evening with friends
and had more than a few beers followed by a couple of bottles of rather nice
red wine and a few vodka shots. Although relaxed, I still had the common sense
to know I was slightly over the limit. That's when I did something slightly
different -- 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 Hanukkah
and New Year to all
