With the holidays upon us, I would like to share a personal experience with my BB&B friends about drinking and driving.
I've heard for years about people who get stopped after a couple of drinks. Last night, I attended an early evening Christmas party and enjoyed several glasses of an excellent Cabernet. Fortunately, I had the sense to know that I was over my limit. That's when I did something that I've never done before: I took a taxi home.
Sure enough on the way across West Houston Parkway at the bridge, there was a sobriety checkpoint. However, since I was in a taxi they waved it past and I arrived home safely without incident.
This was a real surprise as I had never driven a taxi before. I don't know where I got it, and now that it's in my garage I don't know what to do with it! Any suggestions?
