(KLZA)-- December 15 through January 1 the Falls City Police Department will take part in the Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over mobilization campaign in an attempt to reduce fatal and serious alcohol and impaired driving related injury crashes and provide safer travels for everyone.

The Falls City Police Department reminds everyone that drunk driving is deadly, illegal behavior that puts the driver, their passengers and everyone else using the roads at terrible risks.

If you feel impaired by any substance, do not get behind the wheel of any vehicle. Everyone is encouraged to make a plan, designate a driver or other ride before heading out to parties, gathering or festivities.

During the special enforcement period, additional officers will be working overtime, conducting saturation patrols, concentrating on taking drunk or impaired drivers off the streets.

The overtime for the mobilization will be funded through a grant provided by the Nebraska Department of Transportation, Highway Safety Office.

You should remember to drive safely, report unsafe driving behaviors, use a designated driver and buckle up every trip, every time.

Friends don't let friends drive drunk.
