How To Avoid Getting A DUI Charge

Lets be honest drinking and driving is a terrible idea no matter who you are. And the more you do it the more likely you are to get caught and/or kill yourself or someone else. In fact drinking and driving has become so serious that even celebrities are no longer able to get away with it (Although they certainly try!).

So I am sure you would like to know how you can avoid ever getting charged with a DUI (Driving Under The Influence) in the first place. My first and really only piece of advice is very obvious but I think it needs repeating: Don't Drink And Drive! It amazes me that after over 25 years of MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) campaigns so many people continue to do just that.

Not drinking and driving is the only 100% guaranteed way of avoiding a potentially life altering DUI charge. So how do you go about doing it? Well there are several different options for you to choose from depending on your situation.

Your best bet is to always designate a driver who will avoid all alcohol for the evening. This includes not only nights out at a bar or club but also going to parties at peoples houses especially during the holiday season. Basically, in any situation where you are consuming alcohol you should aim to have a designated driver present.

However, having a designated driver may not be that realistic depending on what you and your friends may be like. If you and the people you like to drink with, have difficulty being in an environment where alcohol is served and not partaking in it, then do everyone a favor and leave your car at home.

Instead try using public transportation if it is available in your area. Failing that you will have to employ the services of a Taxi company. Another idea if you are going to an event with a large number of people is to hire a van or bus instead as this can be cheaper for larger groups than hiring a load of cabs.

It does not matter how you or the person driving avoids getting behind the wheel after consuming alcohol just as long as you do. There are so many costs associated with drinking and driving every year; don't add to them.

What if I have already been charged with a DUI; is there a way I can avoid being detected again?

Besides not drinking and driving, no there isn't! There are many myths about how you can beat a Breathalyzer test let me just save you time and money don't bother. If you insist on drinking and driving sooner or later you will get caught. I just hope than when you do it is not because you killed someone.

Also when you get caught, I hope you know the number of a good DUI lawyer or DUI attorney because you are going to need one. Remember it is very simple to avoid a DUI charge. Don't Drink And Drive!
