Celebrating at bars, restaurants, clubs, and community events is a lot of fun and a great way to create some spectacular memories, but it can also be dangerous. The good news is that there are steps you can take to protect yourself while making the holiday a memorable experience.<\/p>\n

Pick a Group of Trusted Friends<\/h3>\n

There is safety in numbers which is why you should plan on going out with a group of people who are just as excited about going out as you are and who you trust. Before hitting town, decide on things like who is driving (or if you\u2019re getting a rideshare car or cab home.) Agree that no matter what happens, everyone leaves each location with the others, that no one leaves anyone behind, and have a form of communication ready to go if someone does get separated from the group.<\/p>\n

Limit Your Drinking<\/h3>\n

Yes, you want to have a good time, but don\u2019t drink so much alcohol that you get into a fight with your friends, or your normally good judgment wavers. Know what your limit is and pace yourself accordingly. If you do imbibe in too much alcohol, make sure at least one member of your friend group is sober enough to watch out for you.<\/p>\n

No matter what you\u2019re drinking, never leave your drink unattended. If you do have to leave your drink, order a new one when you return to the table. Never drink from a glass that you\u2019ve lost track of, no matter how temporarily.<\/p>\n

Stick to Areas You\u2019re Familiar With<\/h3>\n

New Year’s Eve isn\u2019t really the night that you want to explore new locations. If you do want to go to a New Year\u2019s Eve party that\u2019s in a part of town you\u2019re unfamiliar with, visit that area in the weeks leading up to the party. That gives you a chance to find the safest parking spaces<\/a>, bus stations, cab stops, and walking routes.<\/p>\n

Leave Your Valuables at Home<\/h3>\n

New Year\u2019s Eve is not the time to be waving around a lot of cash or to show off the nice new jewelry you got for Christmas. Those things make you attractive to thieves and pick-pockets. Limit the amount of cash you have on you and keep your nicer items at home. <\/p>\n

Practice Self-Situational Awareness<\/h3>\n

Self-situational awareness is a great way to prevent yourself from becoming a victim this New Year\u2019s Eve. The entire time you are out, be hypervigilant about your surroundings<\/a> and the people in them. Pay extra attention to anyone who is taking an extreme interest in you or who seems to appear everywhere you do. <\/p>\n
