State Highway Patrol urges sober driving during the holiday
The Ohio State Highway Patrol will be highly visible and cracking down on impaired drivers during the Fourth of July holiday reporting period, which begins at midnight on Wednesday and ends at 11:59 p.m. on Sunday. Many Fourth of July celebrations involve alcohol, which increases the possibility of impaired driving. Therefore, the patrol urges motorists to buckle up, drive safely, and follow all traffic laws. “Fourth of July celebrations are a hallmark of summer in Ohio, and I urge everyone to celebrate responsibly to ensure a safe holiday for all,” said Ohio Governor Mike DeWine. “For the Ohio State Highway Patrol, ensuring the safety of those who travel Ohio roads during the Fourth of July holiday, and every day, is a top priority,” said Colonel Charles A. Jones, Patrol superintendent. “Impaired driving is a significant contributor to preventable crashes and tragedies, and drug-impaired driving has continued to increase on Ohio’s roadways.”
