Enjoy Independence Day Safely: Always Drive Sober

The Fourth of July is celebrated by friends and families nationwide. It’s a time for Americans to fire up the barbecue, hoist the flag, and grab a seat for that spectacular fireworks display. But before you head out for the celebrations, make sure you plan for a sober way home.

During the 2017 Independence Day holiday, there were 694 crashes in Oklahoma. Of those, 11 people were killed. More than half of those killed were involved in alcohol/drug-related crashes.

The Oklahoma Highway Patrol is teaming up with law enforcement around the state to help get you home safe this fourth of July.
