Palm Springs Police Urge Responsible Drinking Message

Staff Report / PalmSpringslocal.org

The Palm Springs Police Department has issued a public safety message urging people to drink responsibly. The message highlights the importance of not drinking and driving, using the tagline "DON’T DRINK."

In a creative twist, the police department referenced a humorous anecdote about someone who had a moment of realization while in a jail cell, showcasing the consequences of irresponsible drinking. They emphasize that having a good time should come with knowing personal limits and making safe choices.

The department warns that irresponsible drinking could lead to unwanted consequences, including potential stays in jail. The message encourages everyone to ensure their safety and the safety of others while enjoying out-of-home activities.

The campaign is part of ongoing efforts by the Palm Springs Police Department to promote safe driving and responsible drinking, particularly through initiatives like “Operation Rearview Mirror” and “Buzz Stops.” The department reiterates that the ultimate goal is for everyone to get home safely.
