1/5/26 - Deputies continue to find impaired drivers in the new year   
  
The Lane County Sheriff’s Office does not have regular funding for a dedicated traffic team or deputy assigned to DUI enforcement. However, our deputies are committed to the safety of our community, and that includes patrolling our roadways.   
  
🚙 Plan your safe ride home ahead of time   
🍺 If you drink or use drugs, do not drive for any reason   
🔑 If you know someone has been drinking or using drugs, don't let them drive   
💃 If you host a party with alcohol, make sure all guests leave with a sober driver   
👍 And please, always wear your seatbelt!   
   
Drive safe in 2026 – or better yet, get a ride!
