“We encourage everyone to celebrate safely this St. Patrick’s Day,” said Col. Kriste Kibbey Etue, director of the MSP. “As always, our troopers are taking a zero-tolerance approach to those who choose to drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Plan ahead and designate a sober driver.”
Enforcement runs from 12:01 a.m. until 11:59 p.m. Saturday.
If you failed to plan a way to get home, AAA offers free Tow to Go rides as a last resort option for those who have been drinking.
