Do you have a P.A.S.S. for Fiesta?

As San Antonio welcomes Fiesta 2015 with millions of people coming to visit our city for its rich cultural diversity and heritage, we want to encourage all participants to plan ahead for a designated driver.  Our highways and roadways will be filled with locals and tourists who have come to enjoy our great culture, so it is our desire for everyone who participates to arrive to and from their Fiesta destinations safely.

Designate that one person who has had no alcohol to be the hero for your celebration and arrive alive at Fiesta 2015.


TxDOT, and partner agencies including the MPO, are committed to placing "Party with a P.A.S.S." (Person Appointed to Stay Sober) banners throughout the city and surrounding municipalities.  

TxDOT Dynamic Message Signs (DMS) will display traffic safety messages to remind party goers to be responsible and designate the person who has had no alcohol to drink to get everyone to their destinations.  Bexar County Sherriff’s Office, San Antonio Police Department, Department of Public Safety will all have extra enforcement on our highways and roadways for the two week party. 

TxDOT is committed to making this an alcohol fatality free FIESTA!

 Remember if you are going to drink, plan ahead for your P.A.S.S. (Person Appointed to Stay Sober).
