A little late, but funny all the same
With the Holiday Season upon us, I am writing to remind my friends about importance of driving safely – by sharing a personal experience about drinking and driving.
Some of us have been known to have brushes with the authorities from time to time on the way home after a “social session” out on the town. Two days ago I was at such a “social session” with friends including cocktails followed by some rather nice red wine. Because I was feeling quite jolly, I had the good sense to know that I may be slightly over the limit. That’s when I did something that I’ve never done before – I took a cab home.
Sure enough on the way home there was a police road block checking for drivers that had been drinking. But since it was a cab, the police waved it right past.
I arrived home safely without incident.
This was a real surprise as I had never driven a cab before. I don’t know where I got it, and now that it’s in my garage I don’t know what to do with it.
