The Marysville Post of the Ohio State Highway Patrol is partnering with the Union County Sheriff’s Office and the Marysville Police Division, announced Saturday
that an OVI checkpoint will be held tonight from 8 PM to 10 PM on North Main Street at Chapman Drive in the city of Marysville.
The OVI checkpoint, funded by federal grant funds, is planned to deter and intercept impaired drivers.
The checkpoint will also be held in conjunction with nearby saturation patrols to aggressively combat impaired driver-related injury and fatal crashes.
If you plan to consume alcohol, designate a driver or make other travel arrangements before you drink.
Don’t let another life be lost for the senseless and selfish act of getting behind the wheel impaired.
If you see an impaired or reckless driver on the road, call #677 to be connected directly to the nearest Ohio State Highway Patrol post.
Your call could save a life.
Additional OVI-related enforcement and educational information can be found at the OVI Dashboard | Ohio State Highway Patrol.
The Patrol is seeking driven, service-minded individuals who are ready to make a difference and remove impaired drivers from Ohio roadways.
Those interested can text “joinOSHP” to (614) 654-OSHP.
The Patrol also offers a Ride Along | Ohio State Highway Patrol, and those interested are encouraged to contact their local OSHP post to schedule a ride-along with a trooper during their shift.
