Super Bowl weekend is here, and the Berwyn Police Department is reminding football fans and partygoers that designated drivers are the best defense against the dangers of impaired driving. If your Super Bowl celebration involves alcohol or cannabis, plan for a ride home with a sober driver. If you’re hosting the party, take care of the designated drivers. Fans don’t let fans drive drunk.
“When you’re making your plans for a good time on Super Bowl night, make sure they include a sober ride home,” said Chief Michael D. Cimaglia. “Even one drink can impair judgement. A designated driver can ensure you and your friends get home safely.”
Whether you’re attending a party, hosting a gathering or going out to a bar, keep safety at the forefront of your day and night. When it’s time to leave, make sure your designated driver is sober. If you’re walking, ask a sober friend to walk home with you.
Follow these simple tips for a safe celebration: Drunk or high, it doesn’t matter. It is never okay to drive impaired. Designate a sober driver or plan to use public transportation or a ride service to get home safely. If you see an impaired driver on the road, contact law enforcement. Have a friend who is about to drive impaired? Take the keys away and plan to get your friend home safely. ·Always buckle up!

Please read this important alert from Cook County Sheriff's Office (Official) regarding a recent phone scam that has been circulating our community.Sheriff Dart would like to warn the public of a telephone scam where a caller identifying as a Sheriff’s Office employee tells victims they must pay a large fine for missing court or they will go to jail.
The caller tells the victim to pay the fine using a money transfer app such as Zelle or Venmo and warns the victim not to talk to anyone about the matter because there is a gag order.
The name used by the caller matches the name of an actual Sheriff’s Office employee, so an Internet search of the name may make the call appear to be legitimate.
The public should be aware that this is a scam. The Sheriff’s Office does not request payments in this manner, nor does the Office accept any payment via money transfer apps.
Individuals who believe they have been a victim of this scam are asked to call the Sheriff’s Police Investigation Section at 708-865-4896 or the Sheriff’s Police non-emergency number at 847-635-1188. ... See MoreSee Less
