Joining Forces Impaired Driver Campaign Dec. 16, 2024 – Jan. 5, 2025

Nev. – The Nevada State Police will be joining forces with participating law enforcement agencies in Nevada for a Joining Forces Impaired Driver Campaign. The campaign will take place from December 16, 2024, to January 5, 2025.

This Impaired Driver Campaign aims to increase law enforcement participation by coordinating highly visible patrols across the State of Nevada with the goal of keeping motorists safe by removing impaired drivers off Nevada’s roadways and educating the motoring public about the dangers of driving while impaired.

Spending a few dollars on a ride-share or taxi is less costly than a DUI, which can amount to $10,000 or more. A DUI arrest results in being in jail, having your car impounded, losing your driver’s license, potentially losing your job and most importantly, can result in injuries and the loss of lives. Never be too proud or embarrassed to ask for a ride. Allowing a sober driver to help you get home safely keeps you and others safe. Make the choice to never drive impaired. Every time you choose to get behind the wheel, lives are in your hands.

The Nevada State Police Highway Patrol Division remains dedicated to bringing the number of fatalities on Nevada’s roadways to zero through increasing public awareness about the dangers of speeding, driving unrestrained, impaired driving, reckless driving and more. More information about safe driving and the Nevada Zero Fatalities goal is available Online at www.ZeroFatalitiesNV.com.

The Nevada Department of Public Safety’ s- Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) provides funding for law enforcement agencies to participate in Joining Forces to reduce traffic deaths.
