LAW ENFORCEMENT AND MADD TEAM UP FOR “SATURATION SATURDAY”

WHAT:            Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) volunteers and staff will team up  with law enforcement patrols across the country on August 24 for the first nationwide “Saturation Saturday," which falls in the middle of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign. NHTSA’s $13 million Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over campaign, long supported by MADD, helps fund increased drunk driving enforcement and advertising from Aug. 16 through Labor Day.  MADD will “saturate” communities across the country on Saturday, August 24, by joining increased enforcement efforts and underscoring the message that it’s never OK to drive while impaired.
