TxDOT campaign urges Texans to drive sober ahead of July 4 holiday

Special to the Bulletin

AUSTIN — As summer travel ramps up and Fourth of July celebrations approach, the Texas Department of Transportation is urging motorists to make plans for a sober ride home and avoid driving while impaired.

TxDOT's 'Drive Sober. No Regrets.' campaign coincides with a nationwide enforcement period that runs through July 6, when law enforcement agencies across Texas will increase patrols aimed at identifying impaired drivers and reducing alcohol- and drug-related crashes.
