Greenwood PD will be participating in the Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over initiative funded by LHSC. 
Drive Sober Get Pulled Over Wave
Press Release for Immediate Release
A grant provided by the Louisiana Highway Safety Commission will be providing the Greenwood Police Department with additional funding for officers to conduct extra patrols within the municipal limits of the Town Greenwood for the national mobilization of the “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” awareness campaign. The added patrols will take place from Friday, August 21, through September 7.
“Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” is a national campaign designed to raise awareness about the dangers of drinking and driving through high-visibility enforcement and public education tools, including posters, banners and mobile video display signs. Launched across the U.S. in 1999, the program works to combat drunk driving during the busy summer travel season, including the Labor Day holiday period.
Law enforcement agencies participating in the “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” crackdown offer the following advice:
• If you plan to drink, designate a driver, someone who will not drink alcohol, before going out.
• Spend the night where the activity is held.
• Report impaired drivers to law enforcement. Reports can be made by calling the Greenwood Police Department at 318-938-5554 or the Caddo Sheriff’s Office at 318-675-2170
