Police offering safe rides home for New Year's Eve

Posted: Updated:

If you party a little too hard this New Year's Eve, the Winnebago County Sheriff's Department wants you to call them for a ride home.

The annual program is in its 31st year. Anyone who needs a ride home because they have been drinking too much is asked to call (815) 639-4674. The sheriff's department does ask that you try to find your own designated driver first, before calling them because of the high volume of calls they handle on New Year's Eve.

The rides are available for anyone in Winnebago County from 11:00 p.m. Saturday to 4:00 a.m. Sunday.
