For drivers who have received an <\/span>SR-22<\/span><\/a> reporting requirement in the past or otherwise struggled with alcohol and driving, July 4th offers a mixed blessing: Spending time with family and friends and plenty of opportunities to drink and make poor choices.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n In this guide, you will discover how you can make better choices on the 4th of July holiday, including some ways to avoid getting into a drunk driving situation, alternatives to drinking (including some of the tastiest mocktails around), and how to stay safe when playing with fireworks.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The easiest way to avoid drinking and driving is to not drink.

Failing a sobriety test at one of these checkpoints or refusing to participate in a sobriety test could cause serious legal problems, including arrest.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Below are some of the best ways to avoid drunk driving on Independence Day:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n If you do happen to come across a DUI or sobriety checkpoint, make sure you have your license and insurance information handy.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The best way to avoid problems at these checkpoints (aside from not drinking and driving) is to have all your paperwork ready to hand off, especially if you’ve previously received an SR-22 or <\/span>FR-44<\/span><\/a>. Alcohol consumption and driving is no joke, and the legal penalties and impact on your health, safety and finances can be serious.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\nPlanning to Drink on July 4th?
