The Beaver County Traffic Safety Action Network welcomed a second “Call 911 to Report an Impaired Driver” billboard sign to the County on Oct. 12.

Located at the intersection of Twp. Rd. 492 and R.R. 182, between Coal Creek Golf Resort and Black Nugget Lake, the sign urges motorists to report impaired drivers by calling 911.

“MADD Canada is pleased to partner with the Traffic Safety Action Network in this very important road safety initiative,” said Louise Twerdy, MADD Canada Chapter Services Manager, Western Region.
