Muskego P.D. to take part in Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over

MUSKEGO (WITI) -- The Muskego Police Department will be taking part in the statewide Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign.

The initiative runs from August 16th through September 2nd. During that time, additional enforcement efforts will focus on alcohol and drug impaired drivers.

From January 1st through August 5th, there have been 62 fewer fatalities on Wisconsin's roads than during the same time period in 2012, a decrease of 18%.

The Muskego Police Department hopes to decrease this number even further by participating in this program.

Drivers are urged to drive sober and utilize designated drivers. They are also encouraged to report suspected impaired drivers to local law enforcement.
