S<\/span>aint Patrick\u2019s Day is a great holiday. It\u2019s one of those fun holidays where you\u2019re encouraged to cut loose and have a good time. The problem with Saint Patrick\u2019s Day<\/em> is that it\u2019s also a time when many people get a little too relaxed and end up in jail. Happily, there are things you can do to make sure you enjoy the holiday and also stay on the right side of the law.<\/p>\n

Check Out Current Pandemic Restrictions<\/h3>\n

Last year, Saint Patrick\u2019s Day was interrupted and virtually canceled because of the pandemic. This year it doesn\u2019t look like things will be quite as restricted but that doesn\u2019t mean you\u2019ll be able to do whatever you want. Before heading out, check both state and local restrictions<\/em> and know exactly what you can and can\u2019t do. Also, make sure you adhere to social distancing<\/em> guidelines and wear your face mask while you\u2019re in public areas.<\/p>\n

Have a Designated Driver<\/h3>\n

Saint Patrick\u2019s Day is one of the biggest drinking nights of the year. Expect that the cops will be out and that they will be looking for drunk drivers<\/a>. If you plan on drinking, do the smart thing and have a designated driver<\/em> on hand. If none of your friends want to be the DD at least arrange for a rideshare program or cab to take you wherever you want to go.<\/p>\n

The best way to avoid the temptation of getting behind the wheel after you\u2019ve been drinking is leaving your car at home and getting a ride both to and from your favorite bar.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t Lose Your Head<\/h3>\n

While drunk driving makes up the bulk of Saint Patrick\u2019s Day arrests, it\u2019s not the only thing that can result in your spending a night in jail. Other common arrests during the holiday include drunk and disorderly, assault<\/a>, and public intoxication<\/em> charges. If you\u2019re prone to drinking to the point where you lose all your inhibitions and do things you\u2019ll regret, either bring a friend along who will remain levelheaded and prevent you from doing something you shouldn\u2019t or restrict your celebrating to your home.<\/p>\n
