Drive Sober Campaign Through September 7th

Posted Aug 19, 2026 12:09 PM

As we approach Labor Day Weekend, the Kansas Highway Patrol and other state agencies are urging drivers to stay sober behind the wheel, not just because it’s the law, but because it saves lives. Impaired driving isn’t limited to alcohol either—it also applies to prescriptions and other recreational drugs. The Kansas Highway Patrol along with local law enforcement agencies will be on the lookout for those who are driving under the influence during the campaign which runs through September 7th.
