PRESS CONFERENCE / RELEASE
MEDIA INVITATION


Friday, August 29, 2014 at 10:30AM
Corning Preserve Boat Launch, Colonie St., Albany NY


You are cordially invited to attend a press conference announcing the Labor Day
weekend DWI Sweep with the Albany County Sheriffs Office, Martin Harding and Mazzotti
law firm and local law enforcement representatives. The sheriffs office will also be unveiling
their Cab/Cop car which draws the attention of anyone thinking about drinking and driving.
The front half is a typical patrol unit and the back half is a taxi cab. The focus of this media
event is the slogan Buzzed Driving is Drunk Driving. The press conference will take place at
Corning Preserve boat launch, Colonie St., Albany, NY, Friday, August 29, 2014 at 10:30 AM.
This press conference is to promote and educate the public on responsible choices when
drinking alcoholic beverages and reducing DWI and DWI related fatal accidents.

Statistical data from the NHTSA, shows that on average one drunk driving fatality
occurred every 51 minutes in 2012. With as little as two drinks you may find yourself over the
legal limit of .06% blood alcohol concentration. Our local press conference will announce our
efforts to decrease the number of incidents as a result of intoxicated drivers.

Thank you in advance for your participation and support. I look forward to seeing you
at the press conference.

Sheriff Craig D. Apple, Sr.
