A regional drunk driving prevention organization and the Vineland Police Department have joined forces in an effort to show local residents the importance of designated drivers.
A new Ford Explorer, driven by Sgt. Terry Hall, is being called a “rolling billboard” that will promote the mission of the John R. Elliott HERO Campaign for Designated Drivers.
“We established it in memory of our son, Navy Ensign John Elliott, who was killed in a collision with a drunken driver on Route 40 near Woodstown on July 22, 2000,” Bill Elliott, John’s father, said to SNJ Today. “Our mission is to prevent drunk driving tragedies by promoting the use of safe and sober designated drivers.”
