ENDUI Patrols and Checkpoint Planned for Canadian County

Members of the Oklahoma Highway Patrol and the ENDUI team will partner with the Canadian County Sheriff's Office, and the Mustang and Yukon Police Departments to conduct high-visibility patrols and a checkpoint this Friday, Feb. 15.

The checkpoint will operate from 11 p.m. to 1 a.m. on Feb. 15 with the high-visibility patrols happening before, during, and after the checkpoint.

"Before you start drinking, take a minute to figure out how you're getting home," said Trooper Aaron Nickell.

In 2017, 13 people were killed in drug/alcohol-related crashes in Canadian County.

"Services like Uber and Lyft, as well as other ride-share services, are available across Canadian County to get you home safe. There is never a reason to drive if you've been drinking, using drugs or taking any medication that may alter your state of mind," said Nickell.
