NY State Troopers Warn Drivers In Buffalo This Week

The big day is here and if you plan to celebrate and have a few drinks, make sure you have a ride home planned before you start the festivities.

New York State Troopers have issued a reminder and a warning not only for St. Patrick's Day, but for this entire week.

Even though the parades have been canceled and your favorite pub may be limited to only 50% capacity, the danger of driving impaired is still very real. With great programs like Uber and Lyft, there really is not reason for anyone to get behind the wheel after a few drinks.

If you are looking for some things to do this St. Patrick's Day, there are some cool things to check out. Niagara Falls is about to go green for Wednesday evening! It is a great tradition that not only helps the public to celebrate, but it is also being used to promote conservation of our great resources in the Western New York and Southern Ontario region.

Even though the party may be smaller, celebrate safely and stay focused when you drive around this week.
