The Blair County DUI Task Force will be conducting one or more events this week. Sobriety checkpoints are well-lit and manned by uniformed officers. Roving patrols utilize uniformed officers in marked police vehicles.
“Cops in Shops” utilize police officers, either in uniform or civilian attire. Officers may pose as employees or customers of six pack stores and distributors in an attempt to deter liquor law violations.
Motorists are reminded to always be alert while in the vicinity of emergency personnel and vehicles as required by Pennsylvania’s “Move Over Law.”
The Blair County DUI Task Force reminds you not to drink and drive and to know if your prescription medication affects your driving ability. Impaired driving is 100 percent preventable.
Please wear your seatbelts and allow enough time to get to your destination without being rushed. Be a defensive driver. Be alert to all traffic, pedestrians and actual or potential hazards.
The DUI Task Force is committed to reducing the number of alcohol-related accidents, injuries and deaths in Blair County though educating the public regarding Pennsylvania’s vehicle code and DUI laws, deterrence of motorists from driving after consuming alcohol and apprehension of those who violate the laws of the Commonwealth.
