Candy Cane Campaign in full swing
Drivers in the Peace Country are being stopped and given a candy cane, along with some safe driving tips.
The traffic stops are part of Alberta Health Services’ Candy Cane Campaign.
Candy Cane Campaign teams are going to be delivering a variety of traffic safety tips, but will be emphasising the dangers of impaired driving.
“The Candy Cane Campaign is there to spread some cheer, and get some safety tips out to drivers and passengers in those vehicles that we’ll be pulling over,” says AHS Health Promotions Facilitator Michelle Hodder. “The main thing is, of course, don’t drink and drive. If you are planning to have some alcoholic beverages over the holiday season, just make sure you plan ahead and have a ride to get you home.”
