The Festive R.I.D.E campaign started on November 23 and it will run until Jan- uary 2, 2014. According to the OPP, the public can expect to see as many OPP Festive R.I.D.E. stops as ever during this year's campaign, in order to deal with the relatively small number of drivers who choose to get an impaired driving charge over the simpler and less costly solution of not getting behind the wheel after consuming alcohol. Within the first five days of the cam- paign, OPP had conducted 19 RIDE checks and the results were encourag- ing. So far there has not been a single impaired driving charge, alcohol related offence or warn range suspension iden- tified at a Huron County OPP Festive R.I.D.E check. Other traffic violations have been identified such as a 31 -year old male driver from Goderich was charged with Drive Under Suspension, one driver failed to surrender a driver's license and another had an expired vali- dation sticker.

Never allowyourself to drink and drive," said Chief Superintendent Don Bell, Commander, OPP Highway Safety Divi- sion. "Never allow someone you suspect is impaired by alcohol or drugs to drive and if you are out on the road and sus- pect that a driver is impaired, call 9-1-1. I would like to thank in advance the hun- dreds of thousands of drivers we know we can count on to take these simple but important measures to help us get eve- ryone through the holiday safely," The OPP is also reminding drivers that there is no safe amount of alcohol con- sumption when driving. This is evident every year in the number of Warn Range Suspensions the OPP issues to drivers whose Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) falls within the 0.05 to 0.08 range. Over the last two Festive R.I.D.E. cam- paigns (2011 and 2012), OPP officers issued a total of 1,208 Warn Range Sus- pensions over and above the 1,375 impaired driving charges they laid throughout the province. Those who are issued a Warn Range Suspension imme- diately lose their license at the roadside and are not allowed to drive from that point on for a minimum of three days. The OPP is asking the public to join in on the conversation on Facebook during the campaign. Share your thoughts, sto- ries and personal experiences with impaired drivers/driving, as well as any positive stories about people you encounter over the holidays whose actions and decisions about drinking and driving contribute to a safe holiday season on our roads. t3 FOSTER FAMILIES NEEDED FOR Hurn -Pert 1 CHILDREN & YOUTH Chkruikvel Help Children Iran 'bur Connelly For Information Call ale Hl -Penh ChiIdreft' Alla salfeip Perth County (Deanie Jardine) 511-271-5/10. or 1.1:100 -E88 -50S4 Huron County (Deanie Jardine) 519-524-73W lir 1-600-26 5-5130 028ain St. North, Bayfield, On nOm1g0.519-565-4777 Open every Fri -Sat -Sun & Dec 23, 24th "SALE UP TO 5%1LOFF ETAI L J MERCHANDISE" DEC 7th -DEC 24th Aprons, Placemats, Cupcake Ornaments, Cupcake Carriers, & much more! while supplies last.
