**Chandler Police Holiday DUI Task Force in Full Effect**

CHANDLER, AZ – The Chandler Police Department, in collaboration with the East Valley Holiday DUI Task Force, continues its efforts to keep impaired drivers off the roads. Officers will conduct patrols throughout the upcoming weekend to ensure the safety of all residents and commuters.

The operation is part of the city's ongoing “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign, emphasizing the importance of avoiding driving under the influence during the holiday season. The initiative is also supported by the Arizona Governor’s Office of Highway Safety, the Scottsdale Police Department, and the Gilbert Police Department.

Officials urge everyone to plan ahead and arrange for a safe ride home if consuming alcohol or using impairing substances. By working together, the community can help prevent avoidable accidents and ensure a safer holiday season for all.

For more information about the campaign or safety tips, residents are encouraged to follow updates from the Chandler Police Department. #DriveSober #KeepChandlerSafe #DUI
