The silly season is almost upon us and now is the time to ask yourself, do you have a Plan B to get home safely?
The Orange and Cabonne Road Safety Program is encouraging everyone to leave the car at home when celebrating the festive season at their work Christmas party.
The annual taxi voucher campaign begins on Monday 9 November for workplaces to register their staff Christmas party to go in the weekly draw for free $10 taxi vouchers.
The campaign is designed to encourage all drivers to leave the car at home and make a taxi their Plan B.
Orange Mayor Tony Mileto encouraged everyone to think ahead, plan to catch a taxi and get home safely to their family this Christmas.
"I'm sure everyone is looking forward to relaxing and celebrating at their work Christmas parties this year," Cr Mileto said.
"We're all aware of the tragic consequences of drink driving and it's so easily preventable. Ditch the car keys, leave the car at home and make a taxi your Plan B. And don't forget to look out for your workmates as well to make sure they get home safely."
Cr Mileto encouraged employers and employees to reinforce the drink-driving message to their colleagues at this time of year.
"Every drink affects your ability to drive, slows reactions, impairs judgment and increases risk-taking behaviour. The safest choice is not to drive."
