As we head into Labor Day weekend, the California Highway Patrol will begin a Holiday Enforcement Period (HEP) beginning at 6:00 p.m. on Friday (9/4) and continue through 11:59 p.m. on Monday (9/7).

During the HEP, CHP officers will be out in force with a strong focus on removing impaired drivers from our roadways. If your Labor Day plans include alcohol, plan ahead and designate a sober driver, use a ride-share service, or arrange for a safe ride home.

A DUI is completely preventable. Don’t risk your life or the lives of others by driving impaired.

Please buckle up, obey posted speed limits, eliminate distractions, and drive responsibly.

Enjoy your Labor Day weekend and help us make sure everyone gets home safely.
