Members of the Gilbert Police Department will join Chandler police on Tuesday for the Know Your Limit campaign, which is a non-enforcement program made to help educate the public on alcohol and its effects on people’s blood alcohol level.
All of the Chandler officers participating over the holiday weekend are trained to detect roadway impairment.
The department urged everyone to wear your seatbelt, drive defensively and if you happen to have a few drinks, designate a driver or call for a ride.
