LOWER TOWNSHIP — Township police on Friday unveiled their new vehicle dedicated to a campaign that promotes designated, sober drivers and honoring two officers who died.
The new car, which features decals of the John R. Elliot HERO Campaign, was announced in a news release.
“During these trying times of the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s great that such a positive and impactful campaign continues,” Chief William Mastriana said.
Township police worked with A.N.A. Towing & Recovery, which sponsored the project, according to the release, on the vehicle.
Police said the vehicle is a mobile billboard with the campaign’s signature message: “Be a HERO. Be a designated Driver.”
Trademark logos were used in conjunction with township police emblems, and two special emblems honoring township Police Officer David. C. Douglass, whose end of watch was Feb. 18, 1994, and a tribute to Capt. Martin R. Biersbach, who died Dec. 15, 2019, police said.
