Western Washington (Island, Skagit, Snohomish, Whatcom and King Counties) DUI Blitz

As Labor Day approaches and summer travel peaks, police nationwide will launch a two-week blitz of DUI checkpoints and drunken-driving patrols, NTHSA representative Strickland said.

The federal government is spending $13 million in television and radio ads, mostly at sporting events, to get the message out, Strickland said.  "If you drive drunk, you will be arrested," he said.  About a third of all fatal vehicle crashes in the USA involve a drunken driver, Department of Transportation statistics show.  "We would cut fatalities by half if we had 100% seat-belt use and eliminated drunk driving," said Vernon Betkey, chairman of the Governors Highway Safety Association.  Betkey, Maryland's Highway Safety Program coordinator, said police departments throughout the state would step up drunken-driving patrols and checkpoints. The state is spending $500,000 on its drunken-driving campaign.
