Police prepare for NYE; company offers to do your driving

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - It won't be long until the clock strikes midnight and the ball drops on another year.  While many are finalizing their new year's plans, police and other agencies are going to work, including a new service that offers to do the driving for you and in your own car.

New Year's Eve is historically one of the busiest times of the year for people to celebrate, and while glasses will be filled for that big midnight toast, police and other agencies want to make sure you don't drink a big glass of alcohol and then take a big risk of getting behind the wheel.

"Not to sound corny, but stay where you play. A lot of times people have these new year bashes at hotels and things like that, and hopefully they can get reservations and stay there and off the streets because we will have extra patrols out there," said Sgt. Myron Wilkerson with Indiana State Police.
