Police crack down on impaired driving
from St. Peters Police Department
August 3, 2009
St. Peters, MO
Law enforcement officers across Missouri will be cracking down on drunk driving with increased enforcement starting the first weekend of August and the St. Peters Police Department will be participating in this effort.
“It’s never worth the risk to drive while under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Drivers could lose their license, pay large fines, or worst of all, cause a tragic loss of life,” said Chief Tom Bishop.
In 2007, 243 people died in the more than 7,780 alcohol-related traffic crashes, resulting in a death or injury every 1.7 hours.
