THE HOLIDAY SEASON MEANS AN INCREASE IN FESTIVITIES AND PARTYING....AND THAT IN TURN CAN LEAD TO MORE ALCOHOL RELATED INCIDENTS ON OUR ROADS.

CARLA GRANSTROM HEADS THE REALITY EDUCATION AND PREVENTION PROGRAM AT MERCY MEDICAL CENTER.

SHE SAYS IF YOU'RE INVOLVED IN CAUSING A DRUNK DRIVING ACCIDENT...IT WILL COST YOU SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS:

GRANSTROM SAYS THERE'S ONE THING SHE WANTS HOLIDAY PARTIERS TO REMEMBER WHEN THEY'RE DRINKING:

GRANSTROM SAYS STATS SHOW THAT NEARLY 32 PER CENT OF TRAFFIC FATALITIES IN THE U.S. ARE ALCOHOL RELATED.

SIOUX CITY'S WHITTIER ELEMENTARY SCHOOL WILL REMAIN OPEN FOR NOW AFTER THE SCHOOL BOARD VOTED 4-3 MONDAY NIGHT ON A NEW MOTION.

JOHN MEYERS, WHO RECENTLY RETURNED TO SERVE ON THE BOARD AFTER NANCY MOUNTS RESIGNED, MOVED TO KEEP WHITTIER OPEN UNTIL ANOTHER MORNINGSIDE AREA SCHOOL...WASHINGTON ELEMENTARY.... COULD BE RENOVATED.

WASHINGTON, LIKE WHITTIER, IS AN AGING SCHOOL AND WAS TO HAVE BEEN ONE OF FIVE SCHOOLS THAT WOULD HAVE ABSORBED WHITTIER'S STUDENTS.

INSTEAD, WHITTIER WILL REMAIN OPEN UNTIL WASHINGTON IS MODERNIZED...A PROCESS THAT WILL LIKELY TAKE A FEW YEARS.

TWO PEOPLE WERE HOSPITALIZED FOLLWING A TWO VEHICLE COLLISION THIS AFTERNOON AT THE INTERSECTION OF INDIAN HILLS DRIVE AND OUTER BELT DRIVE.

BOTH DRIVERS WERE INJURED, ONE WAS TRAPPED AND REMOVED FROM THEIR VEHICLE WITH THE JAWS OF LIFE.

POLICE SAY THE INJURIES SUSTAINED BY THE DRIVERS ARE NON LIFE-THREATENING.  
THAT ACCIDENT OCCURRED JUST BEFORE 430PM.
