Although Christmas is a
distant memory by now, as we approach Australia Day it’s important we don’t have a repeat of what happened over the Christmas period during which 650 people were caught drink driving.
According to WA Police, over 170 motorists tested positive to drugs in the state over Christmas and 650 motorists tested positive for a blood alcohol reading over the legal limit. There were also 350 people caught driving while using their mobile phones.
Police say their Christmas traffic campaign found 0.4 per cent of drivers were drink driving while 8 per cent were drug driving.
Let’s be responsible and drink responsibly this weekend and over the holidays.
