POSTED: 6:12 am HST July 4, 2009

If you have a few alcoholic drinks and need a way to get home Saturday, AAA Hawaii is offering a free "Tipsy Tow."

AAA will give you a free tow home up to 5 miles. The program starts Friday night and runs until midnight Saturday.

Tipsy Tows are a one-time, one-way ride and passengers are not allowed.

Drivers will have to pay normal tow truck fees for anything over the 5-mile limit.

Drivers who need the service can call AAA and say, "I need a Tipsy Tow."

AAA Hawaii said first time DUI convictions can cost drivers up to $13,000 in fines and penalties.
