Southeastern Louisiana University Police Officers will work with other local law enforcement partners to find and remove impaired drivers from the roadways in and around campus in an effort to help keep students safe. The partnership is part of the national “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign and will be conducted Dec. 13 through New Year’s Day. Motorists will see an increased law enforcement presence on the roads throughout Hammond and Tangipahoa Parish. Officers will also be watching for dangerous behaviors such as speeding, aggressive driving, distracted driving, and unrestrained occupants. Motorists are urged to plan ahead when choosing to engage in behaviors involving alcoholic beverages, beware of prescription medicine side effects, follow all traffic laws, and contact law enforcement if they observe other motorists operating in an unsafe manner – especially those who appear to be operating under the influence.
