North Carolina State Highway Patrol is cracking down on drunk driving this Fourth of July.
Operation Firecracker in conjunction with Highway Patrol’s Booze It and Lose It campaign is underway. North Carolina started its Booze It and Lose It program 26 years ago.
Operation Firecracker runs from June 28 through July 4 with law enforcement agencies running sobriety checkpoints in all 100 counties to catch drunk drivers and reduce the number of deaths on North Carolina roads.
