Super Bowl weekend is here, and the Berwyn Police Department is reminding football fans and Super Bowl partygoers that designated drivers are the best defense against the dangers of impaired driving. If your Super Bowl celebration involves alcohol or cannabis, plan for a safe ride home with a sober driver. If you’re hosting the party, take care of the designated drivers. Fans don’t let fans drive impaired. Extra patrols and enforcement will be conducted from Friday, Feb. 6, through the early morning hours of Monday, Feb. 9. If you’re heading out for a night of Super Bowl fun, make a game plan and follow these simple tips for a safe and happy evening:

• Drunk, high or impaired by other drugs, it doesn’t matter. It is never okay to drive impaired. Designate a sober driver or plan to use public transportation or a ride service to get home safely. If you’ve taken medication that can cause drowsiness or slow reaction time, choose a sober ride.

• If you see an impaired driver on the road, contact law enforcement.

• Have a friend who is about to drive impaired? Take the keys away and plan to get your friend home safely.

• Always buckle up!

The “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign is administered and funded by the Illinois Department of Transportation with federal highway safety funds managed by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
