With the Fourth of July holiday approaching, the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office encouraged everyone to help keep roads safe by not driving while impaired. Instead, motorists should plan ahead if they plan to drink alcohol and arrange a designated driver or take a taxi or rideshare service.
Anyone who sees an impaired driver is urged to report it to local law enforcement.
Deputies and officers from the task force be patrolling for impaired drivers for the remainder of the Fourth of July holiday weekend, the sheriff’s office said.
