Did you know that today is one of the deadliest days to be on the road? Last 4th of July, Texas had over 337 traffic crashes involving Drivers Under the Influence (DUI). My guess is that with a firework ban in Austin, Texas this year, that the numbers will be even more substantial. Without fireworks, there is more time to throw a few more frosty ones back. You may have noticed increased officer presence this weekend,I have seen them in all sorts of new hiding places---but tonight it will be even more substantial. |
