Safety Message: Faces of Drunk Driving
As a part of its Faces of Drunk Driving statewide impaired driving campaign, TxDOT shares real stories to remind Texans that behind every impaired driving statistic is a person from our community — a brother, a parent, a neighbor, a friend.
Driving under the influence can have serious and often irreparable physical, emotional, and financial consequences for survivors and offenders alike. Beyond the all-too-real possibility of taking a life, a DWI/DUI can be expensive and lead to legal hassles, difficulty finding or keeping a job, loss of trust from loved ones, and a lifetime of regret.
The campaign aims to challenge any notion the audience may have that they can avoid the consequences of drinking and driving. It reinforces the importance of always finding a sober ride and using the many options available.
To learn more about the real costs of driving impaired and to watch these compelling personal stories, visit Sober Rides. Follow the hashtag #DriveSoberNoRegrets to keep up with the campaign on social media.
