Rockford Police Release: 

Drive merry, bright and sober this holiday season
Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over, Drive High Get a DUI

The holidays are a time for caring and sharing, which is why the Rockford Police
Department is partnering with the Illinois Department of Transportation to spread the word about the
dangers of impaired driving with a “Driver Sober or Get Pulled Over” and “Drive High. Get a DUI.”
enforcement campaign. From now through January 2, 2023, law enforcement across Illinois will show
zero tolerance for alcohol- and drug-impaired driving to keep our roads safe and help ensure a happy
holiday season.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Fatality Analysis Reporting System, in
the United States in 2021, a total of 13,384 people were killed in motor vehicle crashes involving an
alcohol-impaired driver. On average, more than 10,000 people were killed in alcohol-related crashes each
year from 2017 to 2021, with one person killed in a drunk-driving crash approximately every 45 minutes.

These fatalities are preventable, and drivers must remember that driving impaired — by alcohol,
cannabis, or any other substance, whether legal or not — is potentially deadly and illegal behavior.

The Rockford Police Department recommends these safe alternatives to drinking and driving:
• Designate a sober driver or plan to use public transportation or a ride-sharing service.
• If you see an impaired driver on the road, pull over and contact the non-emergency line at 815-
966-2900 or if an emergency, dial 911.
• Have a friend who is about to drive impaired? Take their keys and make arrangements to get
them home safely. They’ll thank you later.
• Remember to buckle up!

The holiday enforcement campaign is administered by IDOT with federal highway safety funds managed
by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
