The national Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over enforcement campaign starts today and runs until January 1.

 

Increased police enforcement, along with statewide messages about the dangers of impaired driving, aim to drastically reduce traffic crashes, fatalities, and injuries on the roadways.

 

In Michigan, of the 905 fatal crashes in 2018, 31.7 percent involved alcohol.

 

During last year's Christmas holiday, there were 13 fatal crashes, with nine crashes involving alcohol.

 

Over the New Year's holiday last year, there were nine fatal crashes, with one crash involving alcohol.
