Celebrating St. Patrick's Day? Extra DUI Patrols will be working!
Law Enforcement will do Their Part with Extra DUI Patrols from March 14 through March 17
Clark County, WA - Law enforcement will conduct extra DUI patrols in Clark County from March 14 - March 17. Public education combined with strict enforcement is a proven method for reducing DUI crashes and fatalities. However, law enforcement officers can't do it alone.
DUI patrols will be working on county roads, state routes, and city streets during this period to reduce the number of impaired drivers on our roads.
We are encouraging everyone to do their part this St. Patricks day time to prevent an impaired driver from getting behind the wheel. Choose your ride! Call a cab! Call a friend! Take their keys!
This is why officers from Battle Ground, Camas, Vancouver Police Depts., The Clark County Sheriff's Office and the Washington State Patrol will commit extra patrol hours to make the roadways safer for everyone. These efforts are part of Washington's Strategic Highway Safety Plan to reduce traffic fatalities to zero by the year 2030.
The Clark County Target Zero Traffic Safety Task Force organizes and supports this enforcement effort. They urge you to join the team to prevent drunk driving.
Funding for this enforcement activity is provided by Washington Traffic Safety Commission. For additional information about the Washington Traffic Safety Commission, visit www.wtsc.wa.gov.
