Wyoming Highway Patrol is stepping up enforcement on drunk drivers.
During the remainder of August and over the busy Labor Day holiday weekend, Wyoming law enforcement will be working to decrease impaired driving. Beginning today through September 5, officers, deputies, and troopers are participating in the Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over enforcement event.
They say, no matter how you plan to celebrate the end of the season this year, make sure you plan it safely.
In Wyoming, 30 percent of motor vehicle crashes involving alcohol-impaired drivers were fatal.
In automobile crash fatalities nationwide, forty-six percent involved drivers who had been drinking.
