OSWEGO COUNTY – Oswego County police agencies join a special “high visibility engagement campaign” to raise awareness about the dangers of impaired driving, Thursday, March 13 through Tuesday, March 18.
New York State Police, Oswego County Sheriff patrols, and municipal law enforcement agencies across the state will be out in force in an effort to reduce the number of alcohol-related injuries and deaths.
Oswego County STOP-DWI Coordinator David Hall reminds residents that “impaired driving is completely preventable. All it takes is a little planning.”
He said, “If you’re going to consume alcohol, have a plan before you start. Line up a designated driver, call a taxi or ride-sharing service, or walk. You can also download the ‘Have a Plan’ mobile app and you’ll always be able to find a safe ride home.”
STOP-DWI High Visibility Engagement Campaigns are one of many statewide initiatives promoted by the STOP-DWI New York and the Governor’s Traffic Safety Committee to reduce the incidence of drunk and impaired driving.
