Genesee County law enforcement agencies, including the Genesee County Sheriff’s Office and City of Batavia Police Department, are participating in a coordinated effort with the STOP-DWI program to bring awareness to the dangers of impaired driving.
The statewide STOP-DWI Campaign runs through Monday, September 1st. Law enforcement officers across New York State are actively engaged in efforts to stop impaired driving, prevent injuries and save lives.
Plan a safe ride home.
Call a taxi, a ride service or a sober friend.
Help save a life - if someone has been consuming drugs or alcohol, do not let that person get behind the wheel. Take their keys and help them arrange a safe ride home.
STOP-DWI efforts across New York have led to significant reductions in the number of alcohol and drug-related fatalities; however, still too many lives are being lost because of crashes caused by drunk or impaired drivers. Highly visible, highly publicized efforts like the STOP-DWI High Visibility Engagement Campaigns aim to further reduce the incidence of drunk and impaired driving.
