Recordar: Conduzca sobrio o Paran
Esta temporada de vacaciones, The Oxnard Police Department will work around the clock to keep drivers and passengers safe as they search for impaired drivers.

“Two simple words can keep your holiday festivities safe – plan ahead,” said OTS Director Rhonda Craft. “Before you head out to any celebration, plan how you are getting home safely. If you are drinking, that means knowing what sober driver or service you will be using.”
