NCSO Increases patrol presence for Memorial Day weekend

Memorial Day Weekend – It’s a three-day weekend; it’s also the unofficial start to summer and graduation season, so that means a lot of people will be traveling, and attending celebrations where alcohol may be present. During this holiday weekend, Friday, May 26, through Monday, May 29, the Nolan County Sheriff’s Office will increase patrol presence on public roadways, and highways. Deputies will be out in force looking for impaired motorists, speeding, seat-belt and other traffic violations county-wide. The office is asking for public support to keep our roads safe all summer long, and encourages you to contact the office, or dial 9-1-1 if you suspect an impaired motorist. Remember, having a few drinks, and getting behind the steering wheel can make for dangerous, even deadly conditions on the road. “Save a Life, Don’t Drink and Drive!”
