There’s one holiday tradition we could all do without: the spikes in binge drinking, DUIs, and alcohol-involved crashes that come with the holiday season.

Thanks so much for sharing all of that data! We see more drunk drivers on the road as a result of increased parties and activities during the holiday season, but how do we change that? Many times it is hard to find a designated driver because everyone wants to enjoy themselves while out to dinner or at a party.
Studies actually show that the rising popularity of shared driving services have decreased DUI arrests within the past few years. The conveniences of requesting a car on your phone as well as the ride quality have made companies like Uber and Lyft very successful. Promoting and relying on services these services might be our best shot at diminishing drunk driving, especially around the holiday season.
