March 10, 2023 – With St. Patrick’s Day approaching, the Oak Park Police Department is reminding motorists that officers will be out in full force to keep roads safe while the festivities commence.
“This year, St. Patrick’s Day falls on a Friday, and that means more parties throughout the weekend,” said Police Chief Shatonya Johnson. “If you’ve been drinking, using cannabis or any other impairing drug, make the smart choice and plan for a sober driver to get you and your friends home safely. Before you put your keys in the ignition, remind yourself: Buzzed Driving Is Drunk Driving. We want everyone to enjoy St. Patrick’s Day, but safe driving is everyone’s responsibility,”
Always designating a sober driver and not letting friends drive drunk are just two simple steps to help avoid a tragic crash or an arrest for driving under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol.
In addition to looking for alcohol- and drug-impaired drivers, the Oak Park Police Department will be stepping up seat-belt enforcement, particularly at night when seat-belt usage rates are lowest.
Speeding, distracted driving and other traffic laws will also be strictly enforced.
The campaign runs through March 19.
Other important tips:
The St. Patrick’s Day enforcement campaign is administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation with federal highway safety funds managed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
