Build safety into your plans this St. Patrick’s Day holiday. Large groups of people anticipate having tons of fun on this social occasion.  Safety can be an issue during this celebration with potential theft in the crowds and increased alcohol consumption. With the exposure of outdoor parades and street festivals, pickpocketers have ample opportunity to steal.  Be aware of your surroundings and protect your cash and valuables. If consuming alcoholic beverages, please avoid the temptation of drinking and driving.

If you get behind the wheel while intoxicated, jail could be in your immediate future. Car accidents are more likely to happen when driving under the influence, and often results in serious injury or death.  Harming yourself or others is not a risk worth taking, so plan to drive with a designated driver and always carry your active auto insurance card.

Socializing on St. Patrick’s Day should be filled with happy activities, so remain safe and avoid trouble. Tuck your valuables discreetly inside your clothing, and travel with a sober driver.  Gather your friends, laugh, take pictures, and make some wonderful memories this St. Patrick’s Day holiday.
