From the basketball court to the football field. The Corpus Christi Police Department reminded the community to plan ahead if you will be driving somewhere to watch the big game.
Last year there were only four people arrested for DWI on Super Bowl Sunday. The year before that in 2021, there were 8 people arrested for drunk driving. Then in 2020 only 2 people were arrested.
Lt. Michael Pena, the Public Information Officer of the Corpus Christi Police Department said no matter what way you cut it, it's never worth getting a DWI.
"Cause what you don't factor in is, 'how much is this going to cost you?' You get arrested for DWI, your vehicle gets compounded, you lose your license, you hire a lawyer, you go to court, you get the fines, you got to get your vehicle out of impound. Those start adding up very quickly and none of that is going to be comparable to how much a ride share would've cost you. It's simple math. Everybody understands money, whether you want to spend $20 or $2,000, $5,000, $10,000," said Pena.
The game is set to start at 5:30 p.m.
