Partnership promotes safe holiday
DUI task force highlighting education over enforcement
One local business is partnering with the North Idaho DUI Taskforce to promote safety and education as St. Patrick’s Day approaches. Heather McDaniel, the public information officer for the Idaho Transportation Department, said a partnership with Watkins Distributing started forming approximately two years ago. The main goal of the partnership is to offer people alternative ride options so they don’t drink and drive.
