What rhymes with whiskey? Risky!
Some good tips from NHTSA as you celebrate this weekend. Or any time alcohol is involved.

Most people enjoy a good rhyme. Heck, without them Dr. Seuss and rap music wouldn’t be nearly as catchy. A good rhyme can also serve to remind us of the dangerous behaviors we may be about to partake in.

You may enjoy a few alcoholic beverages to celebrate the holiday weekend. If drinking is on your agenda, here are a few tips from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to keep you safe:

1. Plan your safe ride home before you start the party, choose a non-drinking friend as a designated driver.

2. If someone you know has been drinking, do not let that person get behind the wheel. Take their keys and help them arrange a sober ride home.

3. If you drink, do not drive for any reason. Call a taxi, a ride-hailing service, or a sober friend.

4. If you’re hosting a party where alcohol will be served, make sure all guests leave with a sober driver.

5. Always wear your seat belt — it’s your best defense against impaired drivers.

This week we had the chance to talk a bit about the “secret sauce” that goes into our weekly safety message. Hear all about it: IOWA DOT MESSAGE SIGNS - Inside Iowa - Omny.fm
