“You pay in more ways than you think. It’s your choice.”
If friends are drinking, make sure they hand off the keys or call a rideshare. A DWI can cost up to $17,000, jail time, and even a life. Learn more: SoberRides.org

It's going to take all of working together to end this 25 year streak of daily deaths. That's why DPS is sharing tip cards at traffic stops to call on everyone to drive like a Texan: kind, courteous and safe. Read more: ow.ly/OU2m50XotOQ #EndTheStreakTX #DriveLikeATexan

If we held a moment of silence for every year lives were lost on TX roads… We’d be silent for 25 hours.
That’s 25 years without a single deathless day.
Let’s break the silence & #EndTheStreakTX today.
💛 Buckle up
📵 Put the phone down
🚗 Drive sober
🛑 Slow down
👀 Stay alert

🚨 Since Nov 7, 2000, TX hasn’t had a single deathless day on our roads.
💔 Last year, 4,100+ lives lost.
👮 First responders see what we don’t—the aftermath that never fades.
Lt. Stearns of Bryan PD shares why every choice matters. Watch and commit to helping us #EndTheStreakTX.

Freezing temperatures are affecting a large part of the state overnight, meaning water on the road could turn to ice. Please stay home if you can. But if you must drive, slow down, pay attention, give our crews space and check drivetexas.org.

I had just a few glasses of wine and I’m still dealing with the consequences of it.
Choosing to get behind the wheel after drinking can hurt you, other motorists or your loved ones. Please, always find a sober ride. #DriveSoberNoRegrets #EndTheStreakTX

Holiday party plans? It’s NEVER safe to get behind the wheel after drinking any amount of alcohol. Designate a sober driver before the party or plan on taking a rideshare. ow.ly/wMq750UcNJg #DriveSoberNoRegrets #EndTheStreakTX

A drunk driver killed Dr. Kenley Raney and his dog Marshall while Kenley was parked at a rest stop. His mother Sara is among too many people missing loved ones this holiday season. Make sure everyone gets home safely by always having a sober driver. #EndTheStreakTX

Driving drunk can not only ruin your life, it can ruin the lives of innocent people, too. Sara Raney lost her son Kenley when he was hit by a drunk driver while parked at a rest area. Go into the new year with good decisions and always get a sober ride. #EndTheStreakTX

No! Try not! Do get a sober ride home. Lives, it will save. #BuzzedDriving is drunk driving. #DriveSober #MayTheFourthBeWithYou #Yoda

"We'ed" like to be blunt – driving high is illegal. If you’re partaking on #420Day, pass your keys to a sober friend or call a rideshare or taxi to get home safely. #ImpairedDriving
