Labor Day weekend should end with memories—not a trip to the trauma center. 505 people died in traffic crashes on U.S. roads during Labor Day weekend. Thirty-three percent of those crashes involved a drunk driver. Before you celebrate, make a plan to get home safely. Choose a sober driver, use a rideshare, call a taxi, or stay where you are. Together with trauma centers across Connecticut, Yale New Haven Health is encouraging everyone to make a plan for a safe ride home this Labor Day weekend. Healthcare professionals across Connecticut see the devastating consequences of impaired driving. That’s why we stand together to say: NOT ONE MORE. CT Not One More
