ENDUI Saturation and Patrol Planned in Garfield County

ENID, OK - The Oklahoma Highway Patrol ENDUI team will partner with the Enid Police Department to conduct a saturation patrol in Garfield County on Friday, December 15th.

Efforts will run between 4:00 p.m. to 4:00 a.m.

The goal is simple: to make Garfield County as safe as possible by getting impaired drivers off the roads. Officers and troopers will be on duty looking for impaired drivers across the Garfield County area.

Presently, the Oklahoma Highway Patrol and many local law enforcement agencies across the State are joining the nationwide Winter Holiday Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over Impaired Driving Enforcement Mobilization which runs from Wednesday, December 13th, 2023 - Monday, January 1st, 2024.

During the 2021 holiday period, there were 2,691 crashes statewide. Of those, 147 (or 5.5%) were alcohol and/or drug related. Combined with the efforts from law enforcement, the Oklahoma Highway Safety Office asks the public to not drive impaired or under the influence so Oklahoma roads can be safer for everyone this holiday season.

Everyone is highly encouraged to create a plan beforehand and have a designated driver before heading out to celebrate the holiday festivities. Have fun and enjoy life, but do not, under any circumstances, drive while impaired by alcohol or any other substance. The cost is too high. Let’s ENDUI.
