Road side safety check to take place next weekend

-

Police-Click-itThe Illinois State Police (ISP), District 2, and Naperville Police Department will conduct a joint roadside safety check in Naperville during the weekend of September 20, according to Captain Paul Riggio.

The ISP has zero tolerance for impaired driving in Illinois. Officers working this detail will be watchful for drivers who are operating vehicles in an unsafe manner, driving with a suspended or revoked driver’s license, transporting open alcoholic beverages, or Driving Under the Influence.

Alcohol and drug impairment is a significant factor in nearly 40 percent of all fatal motor vehicle crashes in Illinois. Roadside safety checks are designed to keep our roads safe by taking dangerous DUI offenders off the road. This project is funded through the Illinois Department of Transportation, Division of Traffic Safety.
