Most people do agree that taking a limo is something that you would do just for a special occasion. But the fact is there is no reason why a limo should only be used for a wedding or for prom night. Getting a designated driver is a good idea anytime you are going out to drink and have fun. If the night out involves a group of people then splitting the price of a limo between everyone will make for a safe and fun night out.
Consider the safety issues of a big night out.
Distracted driving and driving under the influence account for a great number of highway fatalities each year. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration over 10,000 people died last year in alcohol related traffic accidents. There is reason to celebrate however, since this number is reportedly the lowest in 60 years. While that is good news, no one wants to be a part of the previous statistic.
The cost for a Limo is a lot cheaper than drunken driving charges.
Many people would not consider getting together with friends and getting a limo because it is an added expense to the night out. But, It is also important to think about the implications of being involved in a drunken driving incident. The punishment that will be meted out does definitely depend on where you get caught. It doesn’t matter if you are a former NBA star in Detroit, just ask Jalen Rose. You can expect to spend 20 days in jail among other things. While getting caught in Wisconsin might only mean a ticket, there are still the costs of lawyer fee’s, court cost, and other charges for mandatory classes in DUI prevention. You will also see your monthly car insurance go up, if the company doesn’t immediately cancel your insurance.
When you put things into a larger perspective it is easy to see that paying a little extra now is better than all the serious possibilities later. Just think about all those occasions when everyone will want to go out together. One buddy might be moving away for a new job and there is probably an endless list of friends and coworkers that have birthdays to celebrate. Getting together and getting a limo in those types of situations can really put a nice night out over the edge to something incredible.
