While New Year’s Eve presents multiple opportunities for enjoyment, it also raises safety concerns.
“We all usher in the new year with family and friends,” stated Washington County Sheriff-elect Mark Warden regarding the holiday. “It is a moment to celebrate with those dear to us, yet we must ensure we do it safely.”
Those who intend to consume alcohol should plan for a designated driver, and drivers are reminded to buckle up, according to Warden.
Warden also warned against “buzzed driving.”
“Keep in mind that buzzed driving is drunk driving,” he noted.
Warden also shared safety tips regarding fireworks.
If you plan to indulge in fireworks, he advised considering the wellbeing of others.
“Alcohol and pyrotechnics do not mix,” he remarked.
The West Virginia Fire Marshal’s Office also offers fireworks safety guidelines for New Year’s Eve.
Each New Year’s Eve, individuals are harmed while using consumer fireworks, as noted on the agency’s website, and it is predominantly children and teenagers who suffer injuries.
The Fire Marshal’s Office recommends that people read the warning labels on fireworks, parents supervise teens using fireworks, and young children should not be permitted to handle or use them.
The agency’s website also advises that those launching fireworks should always have water on hand, should never attempt to relight a malfunctioning firework, and should refrain from altering or modifying a firework or using it in a way it was not designed for.
“Enjoy welcoming in the New Year,” Warden stated. “Just remember to prioritize safety.”
