Troopers with the Nebraska State Patrol removed thirty-five impaired drivers from the road over the Independence Day weekend.
“As America turned 250 over Independence Day weekend, our troopers and dispatchers remained vigilant to keep Nebraskans safe,” said Colonel Bryan Waugh, Superintendent of the Nebraska State Patrol. “There are many more local events on the schedule as the summer continues across Nebraska. If any of those events involve alcohol, always make sure to have a sober driver.”
The effort coincided with a national campaign, which ran from July 2nd through July 6th. Throughout Independence Day weekend, troopers performed high visibility patrols and traffic control around many community gatherings, while watching for impaired drivers.
