The Tennessee Highway Safety Office and SPD Partner to Increase Drunk Driving Enforcement Labor Day Weekend 2018

Afiche 08-24-18.

Fen sezon ete tradisyonèlman make pa jou fèt Jounen Travay la, yon tan pou peyi nou an reflechi sou travay di Ameriken parèy nou yo. Wikenn long la tipikman selebre nan piknik, pati pisin, ak babekyou, kòm fanmi yo ak zanmi jwi dènye jou yo nan ete anvan sezon otòn ak sezon fredi apwoche. Malerezman, jou ferye Jounen Travay la se youn nan pi mòtèl la tou, ak chofè sou yo mete tèt yo an danje ak lòt moun sou wout Amerik la.

The Sevierville Police Department is partnering with the Tennessee Highway Safety Office to stop drunk drivers and help save lives. The high-visibility enforcement campaign, Booze It and Lose It, runs through September 3, 2018. During this period, local law enforcement will show zero tolerance for drunk driving. Increased state and national messages about the dangers of driving impaired, coupled with enforcement and increased officers on the road, aim to drastically reduce drunk driving on our nation’s roadways.

 

Estatistik yo montre yon tandans fè pè nan kondwi sou. Dapre National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 10,265 moun te mouri nan aksidan an 2015, yon ogmantasyon de 9,967 moun yo te mouri nan 2014. An mwayèn, 10,000 moun te mouri chak ane soti nan 2011 a 2015—chak yon moun51 mouri. minit nan ane 2015. Sa se ekivalan a 20 jumbo avyon ki fè aksidan chak ane, san yo pa sivivan. Se poutèt sa SPD ap travay ak THSO pou raple chofè yo ke kondwi sou bwè se pa sèlman ilegal, li se yon kesyon de lavi ak lanmò.

Chèf SPD Joseph Manning di: “N ap mete aksan sou danje ki genyen nan kondwi andikape nan kominote nou an. “Kondwi nan bwason se yon gwo pwoblèm nan Etazini, ak plis pase 10,000 moun ki mouri chak ane. Si w soti sou wout epi w wè yon moun k ap kondui sou, tanpri rele nou. Ou ka ede sove yon lavi."

SPD ak THSO ap raple sitwayen yo anpil resous ki disponib pou mennen yo lakay yo san danje.

“Drunk driving is not acceptable behavior,” said SPD Patrol Captain Matt Ayers. “It is essential to plan a sober ride home before you ever leave for the party. That’s why, during the Labor Day holiday, we will make zero exceptions for drunk driving. There are just no excuses.”

SPD rekòmande altènatif ki an sekirite pou bwè ak kondwi, tankou:

• Sonje ke li pa janm bon pou bwè ak kondwi. Menm si ou te gen yon sèl bwason ki gen alkòl, deziyen yon chofè modere oswa planifye pou w itilize transpò piblik pou w rive lakay ou an sekirite.
• Rele yon taksi oswa itilize yon sèvis woulib.
• Si w wè yon chofè sou wout la, kontakte SPD nan 865-453-5506.
• Gen yon zanmi ki pral bwè ak kondwi? Pran kle yo ale epi fè aranjman pou jwenn zanmi ou lakay ou an sekirite.
