Thurmont Police Impaired Driving Initiative

December 17, 2009

Beginning Wednesday, December 16, 2009 and continuing until Sunday, January 3, 2010 the Thurmont Police Department will be participating in a statewide Impaired Driving Initiative. Officers will be targeting drivers who exhibit signs of driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs. The goal of this initiative is to educate, deter, and identify operators of vehicles who are found to be driving under the influence. The incidents of impaired driving significantly increase during the holiday season, and it is the Thurmont Police Department’s goal to curtail this behavior. Residents are encouraged to enjoy the holidays but drive responsibly.
