As #DistractedDriving Awareness Month comes to a close, we want to remind you to #JustDrive. Simply focusing on driving safely – which means paying attention to the road ahead– can make the difference between life and death. Maryland Law prohibits the use of a handheld phone while driving. Being caught texting or using a handheld cellphone while driving in Maryland can lead to an $83 fine for a first-time offender, a $140 fine for a second offense, and a $160 fine for a third offense. U drive. U text. U pay. MORE: https://tinyurl.com/2p86zyj5 #JustDrive

Thank you to all who participated in DEA #TakeBackDay last week. It was a huge success! In Maryland, a total of 11,745 pounds of unneeded prescription medications were collected from various agencies and organizations, statewide. A total of 1,108 pounds of unneeded prescription medications were safely disposed of at all 23 Maryland State Police barracks. Each barrack gave residents an opportunity to safely dispose of medications in a convenient manner. The Maryland State Police Frederick Barrack collected more than 207 pounds of prescription medications, over double what was received last October at the barrack (84.45 pounds). The Maryland State Police Leonardtown Barrack followed with over 127 pounds collected, followed by the Maryland State Police Rockville Barrack 'N' with over 112 pounds then the Golden Ring-Maryland State Police Barrack with 98 pounds, and lastly, the Maryland State Police North East Barrack with 78 pounds. April 2023's collection of unneeded prescription medications almost doubles what was received last October (584.87 pounds). Just a reminder, if you missed #TakeBackDay, all 23 Maryland State Police barracks are now equipped with secure drug collection boxes and are available around the clock for unneeded prescription medication drop-off. The drop-off boxes remain confidential. No questions will be asked when deposits are made. #PrescriptionMedications #DropOff #DEA #DrugTakeBackDay #MarylandStatePolice #Police #Maryland #LawEnforcement #Opioids #Trooper #StateTrooper #MarylandStateTrooper #Frederick #NorthEast #GoldenRing #Leonardtown
