The conclusion of college basketball season is coming up next month and the Indiana State Police will take the floor to put a full-court press on the madness that is impaired driving.
OK, enough terrible basketball puns. In all seriousness, the ISP announced this week they ll be increasing patrols across the state throughout the month of March to crack down on dangerous and drunk driving thanks to funding provided by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) through a grant from the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute (ICJI).
This won t be some hide in the bushes and try to catch offenders in the act patrolling. Troopers will set up where you can easily see them so you know they re watching. This could be along the shoulder of a road, or in the median of the highway.
