Don’t Depend on the Luck of the Irish – Designate a Sober Driver
Nashville, TN – More than 50 sobriety and driver license checkpoints are planned across the state, as the Tennessee Highway Patrol steps up enforcement efforts for the 2011 St. Patrick’s Day holiday period beginning at midnight, Wednesday, March 16th through 11:59pm, Thursday March 17th.
“St. Patrick’s Day has become a popular holiday for many Americans to celebrate with friends and family,” said Department of Safety and Homeland Security Commissioner Bill Gibbons. “Unfortunately, it has also become a very dangerous night on our roadways due to drunk drivers. We want to remind all Tennesseans to act responsibly, drive safely and never get behind the wheel impaired.”
