“To help keep drivers safe on the roads, Bucks County police departments will team up with the U.S. Department of Transportation in an all-out blitz against impaired drivers,” District Attorney Matt Weintraub said.
The county’s top law enforcement official urged those going to a Super Bowl party Sunday to have a safe plan for their ride home. He also encouraged hosts of parties to make sure their guests have a safe ride to their home.
The U.S. Department of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the Pennsylvania DUI Association are part of the “Fans Don’t Let Fans Drive Drunk” campaign.

The enforcement drive among numerous departments in the county will take place on the day the Cincinnati Bengals and the Los Angeles Rams face-off.
Mothers Against Drunk Driving said 47 percent of all traffic deaths on Super Bowl Sunday 2017 were caused by drivers who were under the influence.
“This Super Bowl Sunday remember: Fans don’t let fans drive impaired,” Weintraub said. “Let’s all enjoy the game and be safe.”
