Driving under the influence is never safe, especially with children involved. If you are thinking of operating a vehicle while impaired, contact an Uber, Lyft or a taxi driver instead to bring you home. Drinking and driving with a child is against the law. In addition, it can result in dangerous situations such as major injury crashes or fatalities. Remember, it is never worth it.
