The STOP-DWI New York’s Have A Plan mobile application has been designed and created to encourage individuals who may have had too much to drink to Have A Plan when impaired. It also serves to provide interactive information on the dangers of being under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs and getting behind the wheel. Some of the Have A Plan app features include: - Don’t Drive. Get a Ride: Uses your mobile device’s GPS-feature to identify any taxi services near where you are located. (NOTE: Not all services may be available). Also includes a feature allowing you to enter and store the names and numbers of people you would call if you were too impaired to drive. This way, you’ll always have a plan for a safe ride home! - Have a Plan: Plan your night out on the town! Includes access to services for dining, travel, and tickets to all sorts of events. - Test Your Skills: An interactive section of the app with 5 skill assessments that test your mobility, reaction time, memory and accuracy, all of which can be compromised when impaired. Please note that these games are not a definitive assessment of a person’s ability to drive. You can be arrested for DWI with a BAC under 0.08 if you show signs of impaired driving regardless of your ability to complete one of the games. - Backwards It Spell: cognitive skill test featuring spelling words backwards - Steady Now: skill test for stability - Fill’er Up: skill test for precision and accuracy - Pile High: skill test for reaction time We hope people who take the time to download the app will share it with others to promote safe driving on New York roadways!
