EVERYONE GETS TOGETHER

- Drinking driver crack- down
co-operative effort ‘a first’

| By JOANNE MacDONALD

DRINKING
DRIVERS will be the
special targets for
provincial police forces
during three different
anti-drinking/driving
blitzes in 1984, with
graduating students to
be among the first on
the list.

The Police Advisory
Committee, created 18
months ago, has designated
three periods during the year
for the crackdowns: April 16
to May 21 (to coincide with
graduation festivities),
August 19 to September 16
{Labour Day and back to
school activities), and
December 8 to January 3
(the annual Christmas blitz).

Bill Hubbard of the ICBC
Traffic Safety Committee
says the reasons behind the
different target periods are
varied. The most important
is that there is a higher in-
cidence of alcohol-related
accidents during the spring
and summer months than
during the Christmas season.

‘“‘There’s more people on
the roads during the
summer, plus you have a
couple of long weekends like
the Easter and Labour Day
weekends,”” says Hubbard.

The Police Advisory
Committee consists of rep-
resentatives from = all of
B.C. ‘'s municipal police
forces and RCMP

* subdivisions, ICBC, plus the

Ministries of the
Attorney General, and
Transportation and
Highways. The tepre-
sentatives meet every other
month in Vancouver

According to Hubbard,
the committee is the firse of
ws kind in’ North America
with them main objective
being to reduce the pumber
Of collisions rnvolving

Plus a continuation of the
