AA are reminding drivers not to drink and drive this Bank Holiday Weekend
It comes as a survey carried out by the AA earlier this year revealed 31% of those surveyed stated they had driven with alcohol in their system on a rare occasion
The August Bank Holiday weekend was highlighted as a weekend where people's normal driving behaviour changed, and people who normally would never drink and drive, somehow view the practice as suddenly excusable.
The advice from the AA is to leave the car at home, and enjoy the Bank Holiday weekend safely.
Speaking to RedFM News Barry Aldworth from the AA says there is no excuse for drink driving.
