Awareness and education are the foundations for reducing impaired driving in the Town of Caledon. However, legislation and enforcement are also key considerations for those who continue to drink and drive.
The R.I.D.E. enforcement campaign started in 1977 as Reduce Impaired Driving in Etobicoke”. The program is now a provincial campaign led by the police community that runs all year long and involves police spot checks where vehicles are stopped and drivers are checked for impairment. The campaign also has a significant public awareness component.
