Motorists in Hall County can expect DUI checkpoints and high visibility patrols during a special Nebraska State Patrol enforcement effort focused on reducing the risk of alcohol related crashes.

“We all know drinking and driving is a dangerous combination,” said Captain Chris Kolb, Troop C Commander. “Through special enforcement efforts such as the one planned this weekend we hope to raise awareness of the need for voluntary compliance as we work together to save lives on our roads.”

The special enforcement paid for thanks in part to a $2,375 grant from the Nebraska Office of Highway Safety (NOHS), is planned for Friday, May 17
