November 24, 2008 - Police begin crackdown for holidays

With the holiday season just around the corner, local and state police will step up their efforts to curb drunken driving with undercover patrols, air surveillance and sobriety checkpoints. "This is definitely a high priority as the holidays approach," said Lt. J. Paul Vance, state police spokesman.

"Our message is clear - drinking and driving can only result in something bad. It can even be deadly."
