Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over: Holliston Participates in Stepped-Up Patrols to Catch Drunk Drivers

More than 200 police departments across the state participate in the #DriveSoberOrGetPulledOver campaign.

HOLLISTON, MA — Drive sober, or get pulled over. That's the simple but stern message police departments are sending, particularly as part of the holiday season initiative that begins on Dec. 9 to increase impaired driving patrols.

The Holliston Police Department joins others across the Commonwealth by increasing the number of impaired driving patrols over the holidays through a special grant from the Massachusetts Highway Safety Division (HSD) of the Executive Office of Public Safety and Security (EOPSS).

Holliston police join more than 200 local police departments across the state and the Massachusetts State Police in the national #DriveSoberorGetPulledOver enforcement mobilization.
