TxDOT Launches Holiday Anti-Drunk Driving Campaign

The loss of a loved one hits even harder over the holidays. There are empty chairs at thousands of tables for Texas families devastated by deadly drunk driving crashes.

As Texans gather to celebrate this time of year, the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is urging Texans to extend their wellknown kindness and courtesy to others on the road and always choose a sober ride.

“The holidays are a wonderful time to be with family, and yet they can also be a painful reminder for those who have lost loved ones to preventable crashes,” said TxDOT Executive Director Marc Williams. “Let’s make a new holiday tradition to drive like a Texan: kind, courteous and safe. That means always getting a sober ride.”
