Marion County Sheriff Tim Bailey is announcing that deputies will be conducting a traffic enforcement blitz to correlate with “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign. Extra patrols will be conducted through Labor Day weekend to “ensure the safety of our community.”
In an effort to ensure the safety of the motoring public, the sheriff’s office will be enforcing a zero tolerance policy on speeding, drunk driving, and seatbelt violations. Marion County residents are urged to obey traffic laws and have a safe Labor Day weekend.
These extra patrol activities were made possible through a grant from the Ohio Department of Public Safety and the Governor’s Highway Safety Office. The grant was awarded to the Marion County Sheriff’s Office in a continued effort to lower traffic accidents related to alcohol, speed, and seatbelt violations.
Motorists are to expect to see deputies enforcing traffic safety countywide.
