The Nebraska State Patrol is one of the agencies teaming up with hundreds of law enforcement agencies across Nebraska, Iowa and the country for the “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” Christmas-New Year s Holiday traffic enforcement effort.
The campaign runs through New Year s Day, and includes dozens of law enforcement agencies throughout Nebraska.
Troopers will perform high visibility patrols throughout the Cornhusker State, monitoring the roads for impaired drivers.
“As we close out 2020, we urge everyone on the road to work together to make these final weeks safe for those traveling,” said Colonel John Bolduc, Superintendent of the Nebraska State Patrol. “We’ll all have some interesting memories of this year, but losing a loved one in a traffic crash is a memory nobody should take from the holiday season.”

With the holidays approaching, the Maryland State Police said they will add troopers to overtime shifts to ensure motorists remain safe on the road this holiday season.
Troopers from each of the 23 Maryland State Police barracks will continue to focus enforcement efforts on impaired driving, aggressive driving, speeding, distracted driving and other violations that often contribute to highway tragedies, especially during the holiday season, the police said in a statement Monday.
Additional troopers will work overtime assignments throughout the month, funded by highway safety grants from the Maryland Department of Transportation Motor Vehicle Administration’s Highway Safety Office.
State troopers will use a variety of patrol initiatives between Christmas Eve and New Year’s Day to keep traffic moving, respond quickly to highway incidents and take appropriate enforcement action when violations are observed that threaten the safety of travelers.
