A humorous word of caution for New Years

By
Mortgage and Lending with Finance Of America NMLS #311662

With the new year upon us, I would like to share a personal experience with my friends about drinking and driving.
As you know, some of us have been known to have brushes with the authorities from time to time, often on the way home after a "social session" with family or friends.
Well, two days ago, this happened to me. I was out for an evening with friends and had more than several whiskies followed by a couple of bottles of rather nice red wine and vodka shots. Although relaxed, I still had the common sense to know I was slightly over the limit.
That's when I did something I've never done before - I took a bus home! Sure enough on the way there was a police roadblock, but since it was a bus they waved it past and I arrived home safely without incident.
This was a real surprise to me, because I had never driven a bus before. I don't know where I got it, and now that it's out in front of my house I don't know what to do with it. So, anyway, if you know anyone missing a bus or want to borrow it give me a call.

 

MERRY NEW YEAR! Don't drink and drive!

This is very good advice for all of your readers. In our area, enforcement is expected to be very strict.

I think Bob might be the only person who read your post before me.  It's a funny joke, but of course drinking and driving is no joking matter.

Hi Tammy Lankford, I agree with you on both counts. I would never encourage drinking and driving. Glad you appreciated the humor.

Hi Matt Brady ,  What I want to know is....... Were there any passengers in the bus?  Did it have correctional facility written on the side?  No wonder they waved you through!  lol
