The Danville Police Department is urging motorists to commit to sober driving during this Halloween season. If you will be out scaring up a good time, remember to plan ahead for a sober ride home.

Never get behind the wheel impaired. It is illegal in Illinois to drive impaired by alcohol, marijuana or any other impairing substance. DUIs are not restricted to alcohol-related offenses. If you drive high, you’ll get a DUI.

Follow these simple tips to help keep our roads safe this Halloween season:

?--Plan a safe way to get home before you attend a party.

? --Designate a sober driver, take public transportation, or call a sober

friend or family member to get home.

? --Walking while impaired can be just as dangerous as driving while impaired. Designate a sober friend to accompany you home.

? --If you see an impaired driver on the road, contact local law enforcement as soon as it is safe to do so.
