Every year Americans head out on our nation’s highways to
celebrate the Fourth of July at picnics, parties, parades and, of course, fireworks displays.
Unfortunately, for many, the celebrating includes drinking alcohol, which too
often leads to drunk driving on one of the most heavily traveled holidays of
the year.
In preparation for this holiday, NHTSA is hosting a Twitter chat
on June 29 from 3-4
p.m. ET to remind everyone that Buzzed Driving is Drunk Driving. Experts will
be available to answer questions and encourage followers to plan ahead for a
sober ride home. Please spread the word and encourage your followers to join us. We’ll
provide stats and tips on buzzed driving prevention, as well as shareable
content for them to reach out to their families and friends. We've also
got plenty of other resources available
for you to help spread this life-saving message far and wide.
Who: NHTSA and our team of experts
What: Forth of July Buzzed Driving Twitter Chat
When: Wednesday, June 29, 3 - 4 p.m. ET
