Impaired Driving Enforcement Crackdown to be Conducted Locally as Part of National Campaign

New Jersey’s largest annual drunk driving crackdown is happening once again. Law enforcement officers from Secaucus will be participating in the 2024 Labor Day Statewide “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” campaign. Beginning December 6th 2024 and running through January 1st 2025, local and state law enforcement officers will conduct sobriety checkpoints and roving patrols, looking for motorists who may be driving while impaired by alcohol or drugs.

“Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” is a national campaign designed to raise awareness about the dangers of drinking and driving through high-visibility enforcement backed up by public educational efforts including national radio and television advertisements, posters, banners and mobile video display signs. The campaign looks to curtail impaired driving during the busy summer travel season, including the Labor Day holiday period.

The Secaucus Police Department is dedicated to become a union with our community of citizens by demonstrating respect, courtesy and compassion. An ever-present willingness to promote a trusting atmosphere between our police officers and individual citizens, community groups and business associations.  These alliances are created through better communication, interacting, listening and responding to our citizens.  We strive to build an environment built upon dignity and mutual respect for every individual in our community while remaining accessible to all whom choose to live, work or visit in the Town of Secaucus.  At all times we will provide a high level of service consistent with public expectations. We will develop an enhanced quality-of-life through community partnerships involving both the juveniles and adults of this municipality.   We choose to go the extra mile to provide special services with a personal touch.

On April 20, 2021 the Secaucus Police Department will begin to phase in Body Worn Cameras.  Prior to the end of May 2021, all Uniformed Patrol Officers will be equipped with Body Worn Cameras.
