Impaired driving crashes remain a leading cause of death nationwide.  According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, approximately 32 people in the United States die each day due to an impaired driver.  Every one of these deaths are preventable.

The Lane County Sheriff’s Office, along with other agencies across Oregon are utilizing federally funded overtime to staff additional patrols for impaired drivers this holiday season.

The Lane County Sheriff’s Office urges drivers to be responsible and safe.  Sergeant Tim Ware says, “Intentionally or not, impaired drivers kill innocent people every day.  There is no excuse for driving impaired.  Please don’t allow yourself or anyone you know to make such a terrible mistake.”
