call a friend, sleep in your car until you're sober...so many ways to not drive impaired.

this is how my daughter died. hit and run by a well known local drunk who was called Rambo by her friends. alcohol has had devastating impacts on my family beyond her tragedy. i'm over it. bottom line is nobody has to drive impaired, ever.
