Drunk Driving Enforcement starting August 17, 2024

“Every day, about 37 people in the United States die in drunk-driving crashes; that’s one person every 39 minutes. About 31% of all traffic crash fatalities in the United States involve drunk drivers. In 2021, 13,384 people died in alcohol-impaired driving traffic deaths, a 14% increase from 2020. These deaths were all preventable.  

In order to try to prevent these deaths and other risky behaviors on our roads, our Department will be conducting a Drunk Driving Enforcement detail starting this weekend, August 17, 2024, from 0000-0400hrs. The detail will run on weekends through labor day. The enforcement activities are aimed at preventing drunk driving and raising awareness about the dangers of impaired driving.”
