A statement posted by the unit said: "We see too often the devastating consequences that can result from this behaviour, even the smallest amount of alcohol or drugs can impact on your driving.
"It’s not worth the risk."
Similarly, Northamptonshire Police undertake a yearly four-week crackdown over the festive period by naming those caught driving over the legal limit publicly.
