The Flossmoor Police Department successfully conducted an impaired driving enforcement effort during Labor Day weekend, resulting in four arrests for driving with a suspended driver's license. Additionally, 125 seat belt citations were issued, with 111 occurring during nighttime hours. Other citations included eight car seat citations and three other enforcement citations.
"Through the Labor Day safety campaign, we helped to make our roads safer and spread the word about the risks of impaired driving," says Flossmoor Police Chief Carl Estelle.
The Flossmoor Police Department collaborated with other law enforcement agencies and highway safety partners across the state for the Illinois Labor Day "Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over" and "Drive High, Get a DUI" campaigns, which were funded by federal highway safety funds through the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT).
