Steer Clear of Orlando Personal Injury and Accidents on St. Patrick’s Day

Auto Accident Lawyers Encourage Drivers to Celebrate Responsibly

St. Patrick’s Day in Florida offers parades, concerts and events for the wearing of the green, as well as parties and nightlife for Irish toasts. A festive celebration for family and friends, St. Patrick’s Day has become one of Florida’s most dangerous holidays, to which any personal injury and car accident attorney in Orlando can attest.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), more than 700 people were killed nationwide in crashes involving impaired drivers during St. Patrick’s Day holidays from 2006 to 2010. On St Patrick’s Day alone, more than a third of fatalities from motor vehicle crashes – 34 percent – were connected to drunk driving.

These fatal numbers can be drastically reduced by celebrating responsibly and observing very basic safe driving tips – for St. Paddy’s Day or any time where alcohol is present.

Personal Injury Lawyer Offers Tips for Drunk Driving Prevention

  • Plan ahead! Assign a designated sober driver or line up alternate transportation before you begin celebrating.
  • If no designated driver is available, do not drive home. Ever. Ask a sober friend or family member to pick you up; call a cab, but do not get behind the wheel.
  • Use your city or community’s sober ride program. The NHTSA has a listing of sober/safe ride programs in Florida and across the country. Serving the Orlando area is BeMyDD.com. (It is not a free service.)
  • Do not let a friend drive drunk. Take their keys away and find a safe way to get them home.
  • Never ride in a vehicle with a driver who has been drinking.
  • Always wear your seat belt.

The Luck of the Irish Will Not Keep You Safe from Drunk Drivers

St. Patrick’s Day is associated with Irish beer and whiskey, much of which will be flowing throughout the celebratory weekend. It will take more than luck to stay safe from serious or fatal car accidents that have become part of NHTSA’s confirmed statistics.

Drunk driving costs people their lives and often causes life altering injuries. Do not push your luck. The personal injury attorneys and staff at TK Law in Orlando wish you a fun and safe St. Patrick’s Day weekend.

Please: Plan ahead, celebrate responsibly, and be safe!

On August 7, 2020, I was fortunate TK Law Firm was suggested as the first option for Divorce and Family Law. I was blessed to be represented by Ms. Janelise Gastell and TK Law Firm Support Staff. Ms. Gastell has the qualities and standards of integrity, ethics and loyalty. Ms. Gastell's dedication and determination resulted in positive results. Ms. Gastell challenged me to put in the same amount of effort. The end result was the divorce being finalized on September 4, 2020. Four years later, the money spent was an outstanding investment. The financial investment was an integral part of moving forward in my life. This included my well being mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually. If potential clients are searching for excellent Divorce and Family legal representation. My recommendation would be Attorney Janelise Gastell. Thank You.

My wife and I finally took the steps to start the estate planning process as we are not getting any younger and we didn't want to leave a mess for our daughter to have to clean up. We have witnessed this far too many times of the last few years, as relatives have passed away only to watch the circus play out afterward. TK Law provided a wonderful experience from start to finish. Everyone at the office that I had the pleasure of working with was extremely professional and got back to me in a timely manner with any questions that I had. My wife and I really appreciate all the hard work and are very thankful to get all our estate planning needs met. We now have the peace of mind that we have done all that we can to minimize any issues after we pass.

The divorce process is never easy, but everyone one at TK Law made it as easy as possible. Kayla Johnson, my paralegal was always available, helpful and understanding of the situation. Attorney Janelise Gastell was also extremely helpful. She made sure all decisions were made in my best interest. My divorce seemed to take much longer than the average due to the other side, but both Ms Johnson and Attorney Gastell kept things moving as quickly as possible.
