May you have the hindsight to remember where you've been, the foresight to know where you're going, and the pure Irish insight to realize that an Uber is a whole lot cheaper than a lawyer.
May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be always at your back, and may your rearview mirror stay blissfully free of flashing red and blue lights!
...And to anyone who ignores that and drives impaired anyway: May your luck run out, your arrest be swift, and your stay in the Municipal Jail be an eye opener into making better choices!
