Saint John police search for impaired drivers ahead of holidays
The stops around the city are in partnership with MADD Canada, which started its Red Ribbon campaign in November. Like in Saint John, ribbons are placed throughout the country as a reminder to think twice about getting behind the wheel after consuming drugs and alcohol.Zack Power / Global News
“By placing that red ribbon on their purse or backpack or their car, it’s a commitment to driving safe and sober,” Dunham said. “It’s also a reminder to drive sober and shows respect to those who have been injured or killed by an impaired driver.” The Saint John Police Force says anyone who witnesses someone driving under the influence should immediately dial 911.
