Law enforcement agencies in Rockland County and across the state are stepping up their efforts to combat drunk driving tonight. Ramapo police, in collaboration with other departments, are deploying additional patrols to identify and apprehend intoxicated drivers.
This initiative is part of a statewide campaign to ensure road safety and discourage driving under the influence. The message is clear: please don’t drink and drive.
The increased patrols aim to reduce the risks associated with drunk driving, which can lead to tragic accidents and loss of life. Officials urge those planning to consume alcohol to make responsible choices, such as arranging a designated driver or using ride-sharing services.
In addition to heightened patrols, law enforcement reminds the public of the serious consequences of drunk driving, including fines, license suspension, and potential jail time.
Throughout the night, officers will conduct sobriety checkpoints and closely monitor drivers for signs of impairment. The goal is to deter individuals from making the dangerous choice to drink and drive, making the roads safer for all.
