The Responsible Behavior

Being a responsible driver is simple: If you are drinking, do not drive.

Before drinking, choose a non-drinking friend as a designated driver.

Don’t let your friends drive impaired.

If you have been drinking, call a taxi or ride service. Download NHTSA's SaferRide app to help you call a friend or family member, pinpoint your location, and arrange to be picked up.

If you’re hosting a party where alcohol will be served, make sure all guests leave with a sober driver.

Always wear your seat belt—it’s your best defense against impaired drivers.
