Don’t Forget This Part of Your Game Plan on Super Bowl Sunday

Super Bowl Sunday is coming up fast and you most likely already have plans set up for where you’re going to see the February 6 game.  In preparation for the big game, don’t forget one of the most important plays of your day: getting home safely after the televised celebration wraps up.

In Massachusetts in 2009, 26% of drivers who were in the 333 deadly accidents that year registered a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08 or higher.  Of those accidents, 30% of drivers involved in fatal crashes registered a BAC of .01 or higher.  If you’re going to be drinking on Super Bowl Sunday, please start your planning now to use public transportation, if possible, or ask a designated driver to get you back home.

Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) began a campaign dubbed the Give the Gift of a Designated Driver, and it helps those who want to be a designated driver to let their friends and family have the option of getting a ride home after the festivities come to an end.

MADD reports that 32% of all deadly accidents in 2010 in Massachusetts involved a driver who was drunk at the time of the crash.  Of those fatal crashes in the Commonwealth last year, 108 people died because of drunk driving.

Please make plans today to get home safely after enjoying the game.
