OHP officials with Troop 'F' in Ardmore are reporting that the number for alcohol related incidents over last years new years holiday is down compared to years before.

There was one alcohol related accident last year, but this year the goal is to have none.

"We set up at various locations where many crashes and/or drinking and driving occur. We just look for bad driving habits. We just get out there and look hard for them,” said Trooper Walter Jack, with Oklahoma Highway Patrol.

Many feel they are okay to drive after two or three drinks, but that may put you over the limit, and OHP officials say you may not only ruin your own life but that of others as well.
