From now until January 1st, 2023, the North Carolina State Highway Patrol is running their “Booze It & Lose It” holiday campaign. The campaign will consist of increased patrols and checkpoints in an effort to apprehend impaired drivers from getting behind the wheel.
If you plan on going out and celebrating the holiday season, make sure you plan ahead to have a sober driver take you home. If you drive impaired, you have a lot to lose. Not only could you kill yourself or someone else, you could be facing thousands of dollars in court costs and fines, jail time, and a revoked driver’s license.
The NC Governor’s Highway Safety Program recommends travelers stay safe on the roads this holiday season by following a few simple tips:
Do not drive impaired and plan ahead by obtaining a sober driver
Wear your seatbelt when riding in any seat in the vehicle
Follow the speed limit
