Summit Police Launch 2026 Labor Day Traffic Enforcement Campaign
High-visibility patrols targeting impaired driving and seat-belt violations will run Aug. 14 through the early morning of Sept. 7, 2026, in the Village of Summit.
The Summit Police Department is launching a high-visibility Labor Day traffic safety campaign from Aug. 14 through the early morning of Sept. 7, 2026, focused on impaired driving and failure to buckle up. Motorists in the Village of Summit should expect stepped-up impaired-driving patrols and nighttime seat-belt enforcement as the department partners with the Illinois State Police and local agencies. The campaign — using messages such as “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over,” “If You Feel Different, You Drive Different,” and “Drive High Get a DUI” — is funded by federal NHTSA traffic safety funds administered through the Illinois Department of Transportation; residents are urged to designate sober drivers and avoid driving after using alcohol or drugs.
