Police said: “Too many know the realities of the tragic life changing consequences that go along with drinking and driving. Think of others, don’t drink and drive; the evidence is clear, the two don’t mix. Continue to plan ahead if you are going out to celebrate and socialize with friends. Thanks to all those that did their part this summer and planned ahead for a safe ride home – Keep it up!”
