WOODSTOCK – The Woodstock Police Department will conduct special patrols this St. Patrick’s Day holiday to crack down on drunken drivers. Unbuckled motorists also will be ticketed.

“We are reminding everyone this weekend to Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over and Click It or Ticket,” Sgt. Dennis Leard said in a news release. “If you plan on drinking alcohol, designate a sober driver before the party begins. Be responsible or risk being charged with DUI.”

If you are hosting a St. Patrick’s Day party, you can be held liable and prosecuted if someone you serve is involved in a drunken driving crash.
