Safety Tip
If out with friends, keep an eye on one-another. If one of you is drunk, or has been drugged (which sometimes looks like being drunk) NEVER allow the guy offering a ride to take your friend home. 99% of the time, this man is either the cause of the situation or will take advantage of it. Make a pact with your friends. Have one person be THE person who will ensure everyone makes it home safely. For more information, you may visit Richard’s Facebook page at www.facebook.com/KeepYourDaugherSafe or his website, www.KYCDS.com or www.KYDS1.com.
