Police are urging all road users to do all they can to keep the roads safe during this years festive season, after officers carried out a number of drink drive operations in Enniskillen recently.

While many people tested negative when breath tested during the operation, a number were found to be over the legal drink drive limit.

Chief Inspector Graham Dodds said:

"This is disappointing. Our message is very simple, never ever drink and drive.

"Just one drink can impair your decision making. Just one drink can cause a collision. Just one drink could kill".

"If everyone slowed down, did not drive after drinking or taking drugs, wore a seatbelt and drove with greater care and attention then together we can save lives on our roads.

"Let's make this a safe and enjoyable Christmas and New Year for everyone."
