Please always exercise extreme caution when driving. Defensive driving is crucial, especially when evasive maneuvers may be necessary to prevent collisions.

This past weekend, your Ramapo Police officers made 17 arrests. Of those arrested, 9 were charged with Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) or Aggravated DWI and interestingly enough, another 6 were driving with suspended licenses. One of those arrested was found driving under the influence with a 6-year-old child in the car.

The Ramapo Police Department remains committed to keeping our roads safe by actively detecting and arresting offenders. This is reflected in the sheer number of arrests and traffic tickets issued by members of our department. Please drive responsibly.
