When it comes to underage drinking, there can be many risks associated with it - especially drunk driving. During the holiday season it is important to recognize that drunk driving can affect anyone. To help prevent an alcohol-related accident or death, make sure you plan ahead, get an alternative ride home (from a friend, family member, Uber, Lyft, or Taxi) or decide to no drink at all.
