Be Safe on St. Patrick’s Day by Avoiding a DUI in Sacramento and Folsom

St. Patrick’s Day represents a significant increase in drunk-driving fatalities according to stats from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). And one of the biggest increases in drunk driving arrests is coming from college students in the Sacramento area. To help with this rising trend Safe Rides offers a program that provides free, safe, and confidential rides home to the students, staff, and faculty of Sac State.

The Safe Rides Program is designed to prevent incidents related to drinking and driving that lead to accidents and DUI/DWI arrests. Safe Rides operates from September through May and all you need is a valid One Card.

Avoiding a DUI is Not That Hard to Do

The easiest way to avoid a DUI is to have a designated driver because the police will be out in full force on St. Patrick’s Day in the greater Sacramento and Folsom area. If you can’t find a designated driver spend the money on a cab ride home. This is the best way to save yourself lots of money in the long run by avoiding a DUI arrest entirely. Don’t play the odds game and lose!

Find Sacramento DUI Checkpoints

While it is best to not drink and drive entirely you can also protect yourself by checking on DUI checkpoints in the Sacramento and Folsom area. The DUI checkpoint text messages and email location alerts can be very helpful and allow you to further protect yourself from getting a DUI in Sacramento or Folsom, CA.

From the very start of my case the Tiemann Law Firm was wonderful. Perter came all the way to my home to sit down and talk to me about my options. He made me and my partner feel very comfortable and promised us he would take the very best care of my case. Peter kept me informed every step of the way and was always on top of things. everything was done in a timely manor and I always felt like I was the only case he was working on because he was so fast. In the end Peter got me back way more money than I ever expected. I would recommend this law firm to everyone. I am very happy with the outcome of my case thanks to the Tiemann Law Firm! Thank you!

I just saw my lawyer Jelena Tiemann on a t.v ad, which reminded me how much she helped when I was in a desperate situation. I just love her! That is why I feel a need to tell everyone. I had a situation that happened & didn’t know what to do, our where to go. I didn’t even know if she could help me or if any lawyer could. All I wanted was it to go away & was afraid most lawyers wanted to drag it out & possibly go to court. For one she was very professional but was very personable (maybe b.c she’s a lady). She didn’t make me feel embarrassed or self-conscious that I did something wrong or was the cause of the situation. She immediately said we should try our best before going to court. Let me handle some paperwork, if at the last we do go to court we have documents. She gave me all the details, pros and cons but reassured me she deals with these cases all the time. She came through and made it as painless as possible. I now have my life back.
