 Website image Local law enforcement officials are warning the community to "Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over."
The national campaign kicked off today and continues through Sept. 5. Agencies statewide will be in full force conducting high -visibility patrols in effort to discourage drivers from drinking before getting behind the wheel. "Ensuring drivers and their passengers are safe on the road is one of our key priorities," Vigo County Sheriff's Office Chief Deputy John Moats said, reminding the public that driving while intoxicated is against the law. According to a VCSO press release, several officers from the Terre Haute Police Department, West Terre Haute Police Department and VCSO will work overtime to conduct sobriety patrols and checkpoints around the clock. The campaign is an annual enforcement effort supported by federal funding. For more information on Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over, visit http: //www.nhtsa.gov/drivesober/ Comments are closed.
