TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now) -

Arizonans who have too much to drink tonight can call AAA's Tipsy Tow to arrange a safe ride home.

Tipsy Tow is being offered between 6 p.m. tonight and 6 a.m. Thanksgiving morning.

If you feel it is unsafe to drive home or if you need to arrange a ride for someone else, call 1-800-AAA-HELP (1-800-222-4357) and ask for a "Tipsy Tow."

Tipsy Tow will provide a free one-way ride of up to 10 miles for the driver, one passenger and their vehicle.

Services will not be given to people requesting a ride to another drinking establishment or to a destination that is not their home. If you are a hotel guest, or plan to stay at a hotel, a tow may be allowed.
