In preparation for residents celebrating St. Patrick's Day, Fairfax County police plan to include additional patrol units throughout the weekend for safety purposes, said Public Information Officer Lucy Caldwell.
As a precaution, FCPD also has a sobriety checkpoint scheduled in the West Springfield Police District, which covers part of Annandale. Caldwell said FCPD is urging motorists to designate a non-drinking driver if they plan to consume alcoholic beverages this weekend.
Motorists are asked to call 9-1-1 if they witness an impaired driver on the roads and provide dispatch with an exact location and the direction of travel to better assist FCPD.
