OSWEGO COUNTY – County STOP-DWI Coordinator Robert Lighthall announced yesterday that Oswego County police agencies will participate in a special enforcement effort to crack down on impaired driving.
The statewide STOP-DWI Crackdown efforts begin on Tuesday, March 16 and end Sunday, March 21.
Lighthall said St. Patrick’s Day is a notoriously deadly period for impaired driving due to the number of celebrations and drivers on the road.
“If you plan on consuming alcohol, have a plan before you start,” he said. “Have a designated driver, call a taxi or walk. Whatever you do, just don’t drive.”
