(KNOX) – To keep our roadways safe, The Grand Forks Police Department will take part in a “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” Enforcement Campaign, which will involve selective traffic enforcement by several officers looking specifically for impaired drivers.
Law enforcement agencies across the state will have extra patrols for “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over,” which runs from August 16 through September 2nd.
The Grand Forks Police Department’s primary goal during this campaign is to ensure motorists are free of impairment while operating motor vehicles on Grand Forks roadways.
This program is funded by the North Dakota Department of Transportation and will allow additional officers to be assigned specifically to enforce these types of violations.
Vision Zero reminds drivers to always drive free from impairment of alcohol and/or prescription or illicit drugs.
