West Dundee, IL — The West Dundee Police Department is urging motorists to commit to sober driving, buckling up and following traffic laws this Halloween, when children and their families will be walking through neighborhoods after dark in search of candy and spooky fun. If you'll be out enjoying Halloween festivities, make sure you have a safe, sober ride home. Remember — “It’s Not a Game.”

Driving while impaired is never acceptable. Remember: DUIs are not limited to alcohol-related offenses. Driving under the influence of alcohol, cannabis or drugs is illegal — period. While cannabis may be legal for adults, if you drive high, you’ll still get a DUI. Additionally, all vehicle occupants must wear their seat belts or risk a ticket.

The West Dundee Police Department encourages everyone to follow these simple tips to keep our roads safe this Halloween:

• Plan a safe way to get home before attending any party.
• Designate a sober driver, take public transportation, use a ride-sharing service or call a sober friend or family member for a ride.
• Walking while impaired can be just as dangerous as driving. Make sure you have a sober friend to walk you home if needed.
• Always wear your seat belt. It’s your best defense against impaired drivers and crashes.
• If you see an impaired driver on the road, contact local law enforcement as soon as it’s safe to do so.
• If you see someone who is impaired and about to drive, take their keys and help them find a safe way home.

The “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” and “Drive High. Get a DUI” campaigns, along with increased traffic enforcement, are funded by federal highway safety grants administered by IDOT. These efforts are supported by the Illinois State Police and local law enforcement agencies across the state. The campaigns are reinforced by IDOT’s “It’s Not a Game” initiative spotlighting safe driving and highway safety across Illinois.

PLEASE do not create easy opportunities for thieves.
☑️ LOCK your car when it's parked
☑️ HIDE/REMOVE valuables from inside the car
☑️ TAKE YOUR GARAGE DOOR OPENER WITH YOU

West Dundee Police Department joins statewide Labor Day traffic safety effort focused on impaired, distracted and unsafe driving

West Dundee Police, IL – The West Dundee Police Department is proud to be one of over 200 law enforcement agencies across Illinois participating in the statewide “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over,” “Drive High. Get a DUI” and “Click It or Ticket” campaigns this Labor Day. From Aug. 14 through the early morning hours of Sept. 8, officers will be out in force, focused on stopping impaired driving, enforcing seat belt laws and reducing other dangerous driving behaviors.

Officers will also be enforcing seat belt laws as part of the “Click It or Ticket” initiative. Buckling up is the most effective way to prevent serious injury or death in a crash. Everyone in the vehicle — front seat or back — should be properly buckled, every trip.

In addition to alcohol, officers will be on the lookout for drivers impaired by cannabis and other drugs. Messages like “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” and “Drive High. Get a DUI” are part of a statewide education and enforcement effort aimed at saving lives.

This local effort is part of a larger statewide campaign supported by the Illinois Department of Transportation, which administers the “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” and “Click It or Ticket” campaigns with federal highway safety funds. The initiative is reinforced by IDOT’s “It’s Not a Game” media campaign running across radio, TV and digital platforms to highlight the deadly consequences of impaired driving.
