Gerace says there will be a crack down on impaired driving including the use of alcohol. He says the Wednesday night before Thanksgiving is usually a big party night. New York State Police say they will initiate special traffic enforcement efforts starting today and continuing through Sunday and will be supplementing regular patrols statewide focusing on speed enforcement, impaired driving, underage drinking and distracted driving.
