Designate Before You Celebrate

Headed out for a night of fun? If there’s even a chance you might drink, lock in a safe ride home before the party starts. It doesn’t take much alcohol to cloud your judgment behind the wheel. Choose a designated sober driver in advance so you can enjoy the night—and make it home safely.

✅ Designate BEFORE You Celebrate!

In 2024 in Virginia:

• 318 people died because of alcohol-related crashes.
• 4,306 people were injured in alcohol-related crashes.
• There were 6,767 alcohol-related crashes.

Choosing a designated driver could be one of the most important decisions you make!

It’s so easy:

• Cab Service
• Ride Sharing Service (Uber, Lyft, etc.)
• Designated Sober Driver in Your Group
• Phone a (Sober) Friend
• Many localities offer free ride services during the holidays.

With so many options available, now more than ever, there is simply no excuse for getting behind the wheel after drinking.

A designated sober driver is truly the Life of the Party!
