New Year’s Resolution
Posted on Dec 31, 2009 in DUI/DWI, Local Issues, Sports, Traffic
The Saints are winning! The Sugarbowl is here! And with a new year looming in the air and New Year’s Eve festivities commencing, it is much too easy to fall prey to too much drinking. However, it is imperative to be aware of the consequences of too much partying. Along with consuming too many plates of food comes the ever present temptation to consume too many alcoholic beverages. According to an article published in the Gainesville Times, “[i]n 2005, the most recent year for which data was available, there were 193 alcohol-related fatalities across the country on New Year’s Eve. There were 259 in 1986.” As many of you may notice, law enforcement will be in full effect tonight. And who really wants to ring in the New Year inside a jail cell? Fortunately, if you do get caught driving while intoxicated, Bloom Legal can help! With an experienced lawyer ready to help you, you can breathe easy knowing that we are on your side. Bloom Legal provides expert legal assistance in areas across the legal spectrum, including DWIs. So, remember to be safe tonight. If you know that you are going to be drinking alcohol, make sure you have a designated driver. If that plan fails, call and request a taxi. HAPPY NEW YEAR and GEAUX SAINTS!!!!
