CAJON PASS, CA. (Pain In The Pass) >> Don’t get flagged for a DUI. No matter who you are rooting for, win or lose, please have a game plan before kickoff. So designate a sober driver and enjoy the game responsibly.
“Super Bowl Sunday is the biggest one-day sporting event in the United States and unfortunately one of the most dangerous days on California’s roads and highways,” state Insurance Commissioner Dave Jones said.
“Everyone of us has a responsibility to ensure we do not contribute to the problem by allowing a drunk driver to hit the road on Super Bowl Sunday.”
“I encourage everyone to make a game plan — designate a sober driver ahead of time, contact a ride-sharing service, a taxi, or public transportation.”
Quick Fact, there is twice as many fatal and injury crashes on Super Bowl Sundays than a typical Sunday.
Alcohol is not the only substance that can lead to an arrest for Driving Under the Influence (DUI). Cannabis, prescription drugs, and illegal drugs all can impair driving. Driving is a complex task, and any drug can SLOW your reaction time.
