This Halloween weekend it is imperative to not operate a vehicle after consuming alcoholic beverages. A 4- day no-refusal weekend has been put into place in Austin, Texas in anticipation of the festive holiday.
The celebrations that accompany this holiday can have deadly consequences if people don’t act responsibly. According to reports, accidents caused by intoxicated drivers are down 29 percent from last year. Party goers are urged to arrange rides ahead of time because numerous roads in the area will be shut down over the weekend.
No-refusal weekends are becoming increasingly popular during holiday weekends throughout the year. This means that if a driver is pulled over and is suspected of drinking they will not be able to refuse a breathalyzer.
