4. Practice Safe Drinking<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Part of spring break safety is drinking responsibly. A lot of people drink when they are on vacation. It happens. You just need to make sure that you are never at the point where you are inebriated and unable to control your actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Never Let Young Kids Out of Your Sight<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Families who are traveling during spring break can feel overwhelmed, which means it could be possible for kids to wander away. Don\u2019t let this happen! Consider using tools like Life360<\/a> with your kids, so you can always keep track of them just in case they try to wander off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Lock Your Hotel Doors<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You should always make sure your doors are locked, and this goes double whenever you are at a hotel, motel, or Airbnb. You never know who could wander inside. Err on the side of caution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Never Share Where You Are Staying\/Your Room Number with Strangers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Even though you might meet some people on Spring Break who seem nice, you don\u2019t know them<\/em>. Never give them your room number or let them know where you are staying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Practice Safe Driving<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Always be as safe as possible behind the wheel. This means no drunk driving, and being aware of others on the road who may be dangerous. Drunk drivers between 21 and 35 years old accounted for 50% of all DWI deaths in 2017 in Texas. Never get behind the wheel after drinking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
