During the next two weeks, Douglas County, Lyon County, Churchill County, Carson City and Reno residents can expect to see additional law enforcement on the roads.

Nevada Highway Patrol has joined forces with local agencies throughout the state to concentrate on impaired driving.

If you are going to drink, don’t drive is the message.

In efforts to achieve zero fatalities this St. Patrick’s Day, drivers and riders are encouraged to abide by the following guidelines:

·      designate a sober driver before drinking;

·      use a taxi, call a sober friend or family member or use public transportation if impaired;

·      take advantage of local sober ride programs;

·      call 911 if an impaired driver is spotted on the road;

·      take the keys or assist in making other arrangements for someone who is about to drive or ride while impaired.
