The Scottish Government and Road Safety Scotland (Part of Transport Scotland) are supporting the Association of Chief Police Officers in Scotland (ACPOS) once again this year as they launch a four-week campaign to encourage people not to drive under the influence of drink or drugs during the festive period.

This was the clearest ‘Don’t Drink and Drive’ message yet, encouraging people to realise that the safest option is not to drink anything at all if they plan on driving.

A television and radio advertising campaign is being aired to emphasise the consequences of drink driving by underlining the message that “if you choose to drink and drive, you choose to lose your licence”.
