The OPP Festive RIDE campaign is about to get underway.

The initiative that targets impaired driving during the holiday season starts on Saturday and runs until January 2nd.

OPP remind motorists that RIDE Checks happen all year long, not just during the festive season.

In 2018, 56 people were killed in alcohol/drug-related collisions on OPP-patrolled roads.

Meantime, OPP and Mothers Against Drunk Driving Nipissing are launching the Red Ribbon campaign tomorrow (Friday).

They’ll be at Northgate Shopping Centre from 9 am to 9 pm.

Something new this year is an interactive video game that shows what it’s like to drive impaired.
