A new DUI awareness campaign has begun in Florida. “Be Ready For The Road Ahead” is sponsored by the Florida Association of DUI Programs. The focus of the program will be to encourage children to develop safe driving habits according to WJHG channel 7. Channel 7's online story can be found at: http://www.wjhg.com/home/headlines/DUI-Awareness-Campaign-Starts-in-Florida-181253111.html.
This campaign is not only an effort to teach kids not to drink and drive, but also about the dangers of texting an driving, which has been shown to be a rising cause of automobile related accidents and deaths.
In addition to discouraging people from drinking and driving, the program will primarily use billboard advertising to remind people to use responsible driving habits and to pull-over before you text.
The Orlando DUI Team also wants to remind all drivers to drive safely and responsibly. Floridians should know that in general during awareness campaigns enforcement efforts are also increased and the risk of being arrested for DUI increases.
If you are arrested for DUI, even if no one is injured, the financial and social consequences can be devastating. The increased awareness and enforcement of DUI laws can also lead to the arrest of those who are not impaired, but for instance, those who had only a glass of wine with dinner. Often, especially during awareness and enforcement campaigns, the odor of alcohol on your breath is enough to get you arrested.
If you are arrested for DUI during this awareness campaign, or at any time, give us a call. We can help you through this ordeal.
