The
Florida Highway patrol will be focused on keeping drunk and otherwise impaired
drivers off the roads over the Christmas and New Year holiday.
Law enforcement groups around the
state are participating in the national campaign Drive Sober or Get Pulled
Over.
The campaign runs from through
January 1st and is designed to discourage drunk or drugged drivers off the
roads.
The campaign uses a combination
of targeted enforcement and increased visibility of law enforcement on the
roadways.
During last year’s campaign, 421
impaired drivers were removed from the roads, preventing them from hurting
themselves or others.
If you do plan on drinking over
the holidays, remember to have a designated driver.
If you can’t do that then call a
sober friend or family member or use public transportation to get home.
And if you see someone driving that you think
is impaired, you can call *FHP from your cellphone to contact the Highway
Patrol to report them.
