March 16th, 2019 by WCBC Radio

Law enforcement in Allegany County will be out in full force over the St. Patrick’s Day weekend. Across the agencies, law enforcement leaders have one united message: Don’t drink and drive. Maryland State Police are urging those who plan to celebrate with alcohol to be safe and smart and avoid impaired and distracted driving. MSP will have saturation patrols through all 23 state barracks to ward off an expected increase in incidents of people driving while impaired. Troopers will also be alert for aggressive and distracted driving, as well as substance use. Police also remind those driving to be sure to buckle up and to use child safety seats.
