What can you do to protect yourself and the others?

*Make sure on the very beginning who's going to drive the others home after the parties where alcohol consumption is anticipated

*Find out just how much time you need after you drink alcohol to drive a car.(For example - after drinking 0,5 l of beer - 5%, 150 ml of wine - 16% ,50 ml of vodka - 50% - a man weighing 70 kg should wait three hours in order to drive safely).

*Do not mix medicines and alcohol.The effects may be surprising.

*If the co-partying drink too much,call a cab or organize your trip home with a sober driver.
