Georgia, remember to Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over!

From August 19 through September 7, we’re partnering with the Governor’s Office of Highway Safety and law enforcement agencies across Georgia to continue supporting the statewide Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign this summer season.

Impaired driving puts everyone at risk. As enforcement efforts increase statewide, make the safe choice before you get behind the wheel: plan ahead, designate a sober driver, or use a rideshare service.

Let’s work together to keep Georgia’s roads safe. Drive sober.
