Sobriety checkpoints play\na key part in raising awareness about the problem. New York State Police,\nCounty Sheriff and municipal law enforcement agencies across the state will be\nout in force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The STOP-DWI Thanksgiving Weekend Crackdown is one of many\nstatewide enforcement initiatives promoted by STOP-DWI NY and the Governor\u2019s\nTraffic Safety Committee. Throughout the remainder of the year the Statewide\nSTOP-DWI Crackdown Campaign will also target the national Holiday Season in\nDecember.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While STOP-DWI efforts across New York have led to\nsignificant reductions in the numbers of alcohol and drug related fatalities,\nstill too many lives are being lost because of crashes caused by drunk or\nimpaired drivers. Highly visible, highly publicized efforts like the STOP-DWI\nCrackdown Campaign aim to further reduce the incidence of drunk and impaired\ndriving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can help to make a difference by Having a Sober Plan!
