**Think Before You Drive Impaired**

An OWI can cost far more than you might expect—and the financial cost is only part of the consequence. Court costs, fines, attorney fees, increased insurance rates, license issues, and other expenses can add up quickly.

More importantly, impaired driving can change lives forever.

Plan ahead. Use a designated driver. Call for a ride. **Never drive impaired.**

Please watch and share this quick video as a reminder to make the responsible choice.

Centerville Police Department Partners with MADD Iowa for “Saturation Saturday” on August 29 to Prevent Impaired Driving

Centerville, IA., August 25, 2026— Saturday, the Centerville Police Department is joining forces with Mothers Against Drunk Driving® (MADD) Iowa and 23 other agencies for “Saturation Saturday,” a powerful state- and nationwide initiative to fight impaired driving ahead of Labor Day weekend. This coordinated effort aims to save lives by intensifying impaired driving enforcement during one of the year’s busiest travel periods, in conjunction with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign.

The Centerville Police Department will be increasing our impaired driving traffic safety enforcement efforts, Saturation Saturday, August 29, 2026, to save lives and prevent injuries. The Centerville Police Department is one of 24 police departments throughout Iowa participating in this effort to protect our community against impaired driving.

“Impaired driving is the leading cause of death on our roadways, and police officers are often the first line of defense against this senseless crime,” said Chief Mike Moore. “Saturation Saturday was created to remind everyone that if you choose to drive impaired, you will get caught.”

About MADD

Since 1980, MADD has helped reduce drunk driving deaths in America by more than 51%, saved nearly 500,000 lives, and served nearly one million victims and survivors. The organization is committed to leading prevention efforts with young adults, collaborating with law enforcement to keep our roads safe from impaired drivers, as well as advocating for stricter sentencing and stronger laws, including the HALT Drunk Driving Law that mandates anti-drunk driving technology in every new car. MADD continues to provide support services to victims and survivors of impaired driving at no charge through victim advocates and the 24-Hour Victim Help Line 1-877-MADD-HELP.

Stopping isn't a suggestion. It's the law.

With school fast approaching, all drivers, new and seasoned, need to remember to use caution while driving. Every year we have multiple reports of drivers passing a stopped school bus. Pay attention and keep the roads and our kids safe.
