About the Campaign

The 2024 "Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over" National Enforcement Mobilization goes into effect across the country from August 16 to September 2, 2024. One of the deadliest and most often committed — yet preventable — crimes, impaired driving, has become a serious safety epidemic in our country.
 

As law enforcement professionals and highway safety advocates, your efforts will help reduce the number of crashes and fatalities due to impaired driving. By increasing state enforcement efforts, raising public awareness through paid, earned, and social media, and maximizing your local resources, you can make a difference.
