Firstly - Gday Mods, throw where you want, as ya do
Id like to think anyone that knows the B.A.D.D story is convinced that drinking and driving kills, and its senselessness is preventable.
By now Im sure I preach to the converted here when I say;
Dont passenger with anyone who has been drinking and play your part to reduce alcohol related fatalities.
Or as BADD and NZSRA say: Id Rather Passenger a Sidecar - Than a Drunk Driver
Plan your night out and your way home while sober
Taking keys off Drunken Monkeys
Calling 111 or *555 if following erratic driving
Being responsible hosts, food and water and beds (Or floors).
Offering to sober drive and taking turns over the Xmas Holidays in your group, so everyone has a fair go.
AND DONT FORGET..morning after hangover will mean you could still be over the limit, dulling and slowing your reaction time.
Also understand that alcohol manifests itself in the body as ethanol, and can cause you to fall asleep without warning.
Alcohol will stay in your system for days.
Understand your limit..your variables, and your bodies capabilties
A 330ml can is 1.3 standard drinks
90mls of wine is 1 standard drink
Your body releases alcohol at the rate of ONE standard drink per hour, based on a healthy liver ONLY.
Attatched are WBOP Roadsafety Brochures, which I have kind permission to utilise and handout (Tauranga Info only sorry).
Dont forget our Badd Endurance Race in Association with NZSRA, Taupo Race Track 29th November to raise awareness of the consequences of drinking and Driving in the silly season.

Take it from someone who knows;
Dont Drink and then Drive, its Not Worth the Mourning after.
Go safe this Christmas and New Year.
I also want to continue to thank each and every person who has supported me, my family, and NZ.B.A.D.D.
Merry Xmas to you all
