As the restaurants and pubs thankfully open back up for indoor dining and patrons begin to enjoy all that our amazing local establishments have to offer, please remember the need for a sober driver at the end of the night. Impaired driving is one of the leading causes of injury or death on our roadways, and the penalties for getting caught are severe. An impaired driving charge can impact your life for years to come, and can easily be avoided by calling a sober friend for a ride.
We will be out on the roadways to deter impaired driving, so be prepared to see us at the roadblocks.
