THOMASVILLE, Ga.-- The Thomasville Police Department (TPD) will be cracking down on reckless and dangerous drivers during the Christmas holiday weekend.
TPD officers will be on the lookout for those driving under the influence of alcohol and other drugs. They will also be ticketing people who violate other laws, such as driving on a suspended license, no insurance, and other alcohol violations.
