You’ll See Way More Cops On The Road This Weekend

Drive sober or you will get pulled over! That is the message that the police across New York State want you to know before you head out this weekend.

A major component of New York's efforts to combat impaired driving is the Special Traffic Options Program for Driving While Intoxicated. The state's STOP-DWI program is the nation's first self-sustaining impaired driving program. The program is funded from fines paid by convicted impaired drivers.

With just a few days left until Christmas, and a Buffalo Bills home game, you may be having a party or two and celebrating. But have a plan to get home if you plan on having a few drinks.

According to reports, drivers can expect to see increased patrols through January 1st as police look to reduce the number of alcohol and drug-related traffic accidents. During the 2020 holiday season campaign, more than 70-thousand tickets were issued for vehicle and traffic law violations like speeding and impaired driving.

With the amount of ride-share companies available, there are plenty of safe options to get you home after you have been drinking.
