ISP to Increase Patrols for Super Bowl Weekend

As millions of Americans will be watching Super Bowl 50 on Sunday, the Illinois State Police will be increasing their patrols to keep the roadways safe for motorists going to their destination and back home safely following the game. Sean Ramsey, ISP District 09 Safety Education Officer, told Regional Radio News those that consume alcoholic beverages, should have a designated driver on hand.

Ramsey noted during last year’s Super Bowl Weekend, there were 105 DUI’s and over 1,850 Fatal Four violations citations issued to motorists in the State.

The Fatal Four violations are DUI, Speeding, Distracted Driving, and not wearing your seat belt. The ISP is urging motorists to make this Super Bowl Sunday one to remember, not to regret.
