End Of Summer Update - over 1800 arrested for DUI This entry was posted on 2/16/2009 11:14 AM and is filed under DUI News. Michigan's recent "You Drink & Drive — You Lose" campaign resulted in police arresting more than 1,800 motorists for drunk driving. During the campaign — which lasted from Aug. 18 to Sept. 4 — officers from more than 500 police agencies across the state focused on drunk driving enforcement. Besides the 1,826 motorists arrested for drunken driving, another 1,613 were arrested for other alcohol-related offenses, according to information from the Michigan Office of Highway Safety Planning. The numbers are rather similar to a similar campaign in August 2005. Then, police arrested 1,844 people for drunk driving and cited another 1,387 for other alcohol-related offenses. |
