The Hancock County Sheriff’s Office is partnering with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The goal of the partnership is to crack down on drunk driving. The Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign will run with high visibility from now until Labor Day. You’ll see more officers on the roadways and increased state and national messages about the dangers of drunk driving during this time.

According to the NHTSA, 10,000 people were killed on average every year between 2011 and 2015. Sgt. Matt Kinsinger said, “If you’re out on the roads and you see someone driving drunk, please call us.” You can reach the Sheriff’s Office at 419-422-2424
