(Undated) — Law enforcement agencies across the state and nation are stepping up patrols over July 4th weekend. The “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign is designed to crack down on impaired driving. The campaign features stepped-up enforcement by state police as well as more than two-hundred police and sheriff’s departments across Illinois. According to recent statistics, there were twenty-two deadly accidents over the July Fourth holiday period last year, the highest total in five years.
