Law enforcement officers across Missouri will be cracking down on drunk driving with
increased enforcement March 14-17. The Kirkwood Police Department will be participating in this
effort.
Chief Jack Plummer said it’s never worth the risk to drive while under the influence of drugs or
alcohol. Drivers could lose their license, pay large fines, or worst of all, cause a tragic loss of life. The
only safe driver is one that is completely sober.
In 2012, 231 people were killed and 841 seriously injured on Missouri roadways in crashes
involving alcohol and drugs.
