Local Law Enforcement Joining Forces For The Holidays

Northern Nevada residents can expect to see double or even triple the normal law enforcement presence through the Christmas season. Law enforcement, including the NHP , and Washoe County deputies, is again “Joining forces” to crack down on impaired driving. “We strive for Zero Fatalities every day,” is the motto. Their best tips designate a sober driver before drinking; use a taxi, call a sober friend or family member or use public transportation if impaired; call 911 or “Star NHP” (*647) if a drunk 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.
