Drivers are expected to be responsible and abide by all traffic laws. Walking drunk poses a high risk of accidents for you and others as alcohol affects physical and mental performance. Request a paid ride home if you’re buzzed or drunk. If possible, reach out to a friend or a family member to pick you up. Don’t put your and others’ lives in jeopardy. Whether you are a driver or a pedestrian, be responsible.
