The Niles Police Department and the Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) Illinois have partnered for the their annual "Tie One On for Safety"
MADD’s Tie One On For Safety red ribbon campaign, now in its 26th year, is the organization’s signature public awareness project. Drivers display MADD red ribbons on their vehicles as a reminder to drive safe and sober, and in support of the Niles Police Department and statewide, who will be out in force as part of the national “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign.
Chief of Police Strzelecki wants everyone to be aware of this campaign. “Impaired driving is a priority of the police department at all times. But impaired driving during the holidays can have a tragic outcome. It is our goal to make the streets of Niles as safe as possible during this holiday period. “
