VALHALLA, NY (May 31, 2023) — Patrol officers and Taxi & Limousine Commission staff have been confiscating alcohol and other prohibited items during Prom Safety details this season around Westchester. The goal is to ensure the well-being of all students on their prom night and encourage a sober and safe event.
In addition to confiscating prohibited items, TLC staff and officers in the TLC Enforcement Unit have been inspecting the vehicles that students are riding in to ensure that they are safe and their drivers are properly licensed.
Prom Safety details are done in conjunction with WCPD’s Office of Drug Prevention and STOP-DWI and in partnership with school districts across Westchester County. More proms, and these safety checkpoints, will be occurring in June.
