Why Drinking Is Wrong

Drinking is such a hard decision in anyone’s life. If you make the decision to drink, you need to be responsible for it. Everyone is told not to do drugs and not to drink when they’re older, but the majority of the people who are told this don’t follow through with it. Drinking can be so dangerous. If you decide to drink and then make the decision to pick up keys and get into your car and drive, you’re not only risking your life but any other people who are on the road with you. If you’ve been drinking and you’re breath or blood alcohol level is 0.8 or higher than you are at the point of being able to get a DUI.

Drunk driving has been around since the beginning of vehicles,and with more people out there driving and drinking with the higher speeds it makes it all the more dangerous. If you choose to drink, stay home or if you are out with friends, have a designated driver, or call a cab. It is so much easier than you think it is to call a cab and go get your vehicle the next day. You will save yourself and others the pain of losing their family or friends. Be responsible, don't drink and drive, it is not worth
