One of the main safety issues in these times is the alcohol-related accidents. With 24 thousand fatal victims a year of car accidents caused by alcohol consumption, México is on the 7th place worldwide, according to international organizations of traffic matters.
Especially worrying has become the increase of percentage in alcohol consumption among teenagers and youngsters. In a city as ours, with an eminently touristic vocation, opportunities and availability turn everyone more vulnerable and exposed to an accident of this kind.
Fortunately, there also exist some ways to prevent these situations and they only require a bit of responsibility on everyone’s side. Although sometimes, when we are under the influence of alcohol, we fail to recognize situations clearly enough we must be aware and not drive. Our friends can play a very important role in these instances.
Tolerance to alcohol varies from person to person, but we must be able to realize when we have exceeded our own limit and, if we are in charge of a vehicle, leave parked and take a taxi to our destination. In Puerto Vallarta, many places feature a service of safe taxi for their patrons, who are advised to ride them in order to avoid accidents.
There will never be enough precautions you may take in these cases. Your safety must always be the most important matter, and not acting upon it may be the most expensive case scenario.
