A Message From Chief Dan on Driving Under the Influence
|
Driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs is both illegal, and a tremendous danger to public safety. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) reports that 10,000 lives would be spared each year if drunk driving was eliminated. Statewide, well over 150,000 people a year are arrested for DUI. In the City of Oakley, 80 people were arrested for DUI in 2014. This is an increase from the 73 people arrested in 2013. In addition to the tragedy that can result from DUI crimes, there is also a financial loss associated in the form of fines and court penalties. We in California love our cars.
