Estos lindos cachorros fueron encontrados en el asiento delantero de un vehículo involucrado en un choque donde el conductor fue arrestado por manejar bajo la i...nfluencia de alcohol. Recuerde que consumir alcohol y manejar es ilegal, peligroso para usted, su familia, y sus seres queridos, igual como todas las personas en la carretera. Haga la decisión correcta y no se ponga detrás del volante si a consumido alcohol. Foto : @chpnorthsac #chpdivisiondelvalle #servicio #seguridad #proteccion
