- Prince George’s County State’s Attorney Aisha N. Braveboy announced today the launch of ‘Drive Focused, Sober and Safe,’ a countywide initiative to raise the awareness of the importance of driving safe on our roadways.
- “It is imperative that citizens make safe driving a top priority when on the road. This initiative comes at a critical time when the number of fatal car crashes are on the rise,” said State’s Attorney Braveboy. “In the last six months, there have been over 40 fatal car crashes in which 51 people died. This campaign is about saving lives. Many of these crashes were the result of impaired or distracted driving. In some cases, lives could have been spared if appropriate safety restraints were used.”
- The Drive Focused, Sober, & Safe Campaign will begin with a Kick Off event on Saturday, April 27, 2019 from 9:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. The half day event will engage residents of all ages with a panel discussion, exhibitors, interactive driving displays and student performances. The event will take place at the Southern Regional Technology and Recreation Center in Ft. Washington.
