Chicago DUI lawyer comments on Secretary of Transportation's holiday DUI message

This Chicago DUI lawyer does have annual holiday safe driving tips. Don't worry, they will be posted soon. Now comes news from Secretary of Transportation on the ease of avoiding a DUI:

From Twitter.com:

#drunkdriving isn’t a law enforcement problem; it’s a personal responsibility problem. Please be safe.http://bit.ly/4KtiHzabout 1 hour ago from bit.ly

Unfortunately, it isn't always that easy as I've posted on DUI's with prescription medications here and here. As well as DUI's with blows under the legal limit (how about .000) here and here.

Secretary LaHood's link leads to the following post on his website:

But this isn’t just a law enforcement problem. It’s really about people taking responsibility for their own behavior.

It’s up to every single driver in this country--from the newly licensed to the most experienced--to turn the key in the ignition only when absolutely sober.

Thank you. And I wish everyone a very happy, healthy, safe holiday season.

Somehow, I don't think Secretary LaHood knows you can be charged with a DUI even if the key isn't in the ignition.
