Write a commentOswego County STOP-DWI Coordinator David Hall reminds residents that law enforcement agencies and STOP-DWI programs across the state will be out to raise awareness about the dangers of impaired driving in an effort to prevent injuries and save lives.
The state’s STOP-DWI “High Visibility Engagement Campaign” runs from Wednesday, Nov. 26 to Sunday, Nov. 30.
“Everyone can help to make a difference by having a sober plan,” Hall said. “Simply download the ‘Have a Plan’ mobile app and you will always be able to find a safe ride home. Impaired driving is completely preventable. All it takes is a little planning.”
