Parents Can Help The Ontario Provincial Police are seeking the help of parents and teachers to reduce the number of accidents in- volving teenagers drink- ing and driving after end- of-term celebrations over the next couple of months. Graduations, school dances and field parties are just around the cor- ner. The OPP wants to convince the partygoers that drinking and driving can cause senseless death and injury. The provincial police are concerned with a wide _ variety of traffic safety problems, but prevention of impaired driving is a priority item because this persistent social problem brings on untold human suffering and a tremen- dous financial cost to society. During 1985, Interna- tional Youth Year, it is the special objective of the .OPP to have the young people of our pro- vince experience the safest motoring possible this spring and summer. To accomplish this ob- jective, OPP Commis- sioner Archie Ferguson is asking for a cooperative and concentrated effort by parents, educators and law enforcement officers to help our young people truly understand the perils of drinking and driving. While police officers have a definite role in en- forcing anti-drinking and driving laws, educators can contribute. by en- couraging discussion on the subject of drinking and driving as part of the graduation preparations. Parents can use their in- fluence to encourage | their children to exert pressure on their peers. The glamour and excitement wrongfully associated with alcohol consump- 'tion and driving has to be removed. Commissioner Ferguson said, "OPP of- ficers will do their part through their ongoing vehicle spot check pro- gram, making a special effort to deter our youth from drinking and driv- ing. With parents and teachers sharing the esponsibility, we'll save lives and stop accidents."' | Air ambulance gets permanent base Projecta Engineering and Construction Inc. of Thunder Bay has been awarded the contract to duild a permanent base for orovincial government air ambulance and. aircraft maintenance operations in Northwestern Ontario.
