Safe travel this New Year's goes beyond having a designated driver: On top of the usual "Don't drink and drive," ER doctors this year are saying, "Don't drink and walk" -- at least not without a "designated walker."

In the past, you may have flipped a coin with your friends to decide who will stay sober and be the designated driver during the holiday festivities, but chances are you never considered it necessary to designate someone as a sober walker to escort you home after an evening of New Year's drinking.

Haha..... designated walker!! lol. Doubt this would work in the UK, way too many drinkers!! Good idea though as there are way too many drunks falling in the road on a weekend. Quite funny to witness though as long as you drive slowly!
