Dec. 30: Ready for the New Year

Air date 12/30/11

We're just hours away from one of the most dangerous days of the year. The nation averages almost 11,000 alcohol-related fatalities during the year, and on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, the rate peaks at almost 55 deaths per day. Safe Kids of Mississippi and American Medical Response will be providing free rides home in the metropolitan Jackson area for anyone who has had too much to drink. AMR's Jim Pollard joins the program to explain the service.

Plus, tips on how to avoid eye injuries while opening a bottle of champagne, and movie critic Anita Modak-Truran offers her picks for top ten movies of the year.
