The Dubois County Sheriff’s Office is joining Indiana State Police in increasing patrols during the holiday season, as part of a statewide crackdown on impaired driving.
From now until Jan. 1, officers will be on high alert for anyone driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
Law enforcement will also be watching for seat belt violations and other forms of dangerous driving.
This is part of the Safe Family Travel campaign aimed at reducing crashes and traffic fatalities around the holidays when statistics show an increased potential for drunk driving.
Police say while driving under the influence is a daily concern, it’s more prevalent around certain holidays, with Christmas and New Year’s among the deadliest.
Motorists can report suspected impaired drivers by calling 911 or contacting the department.
