APD and Austin Club Combine Forces to Reduce DWIs
On Wednesday night Dallas Night Club will launch the "Sound Attitude" program to recognize and reward the designated driver. Designated drivers who identify themselves at the door will be given a good sport wristband and a free soft drink or non-alcoholic O'Doul's. Designated drivers will also have the opportunity to receive prizes through a drawing. In addition, Yellow Checker Cab will have cabs readily available at cab stands to drive individuals home that do not have a designated driver.
The "Sound Attitude" program will kick-off on Wednesday, April 13th, from 8:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. at the Dallas Night Club, 7113. Burnet Road. KASE 101 and other business community members will also be at the kick-off.
The Austin Police Department would like to thank Dallas Nightclub and Yellow Checker Cab for their invaluable assistance in developing this program. APD hopes this program will serve as a model for other nightclubs in and bars in the Austin area.
