Law enforcement clamping down on drunk drivers

New Year's Eve celebrations may be different this weekend, but one annual program will still be in effect by local law enforcement.   The National Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign continues through New Year's Day.  Door County Chief Deputy Pat McCarty says hopes are to educate people about the dangers and consequences of driving drunk and high.  He asks anyone that is driving to act responsibly.

 

 

McCarty adds that local law enforcement will be stepping up patrols through the weekend to get any impaired drivers off the roadways. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Association, one-third of traffic fatalities during the holidays last year were drunk-driving related.
