Cuomo: State police to participate in holiday season crackdown
Albany, NY (WBNG Binghamton) Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced that New York State Police will take part in a holiday season anti-DWI program that resulted in the arrests of more than 700 people last year.

The "Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over" campaign attempts to crack down on drunk driving each year. This season's will last from Dec. 18 to Jan. 1.
“State troopers will be out in force this holiday season to crack down on dangerous drivers,” Cuomo (D) said. "New York State has zero tolerance for drunk driving and the preventable tragedies it causes."

Driving under the influence causes one third of all car crashes, the governor's office stated. Last year, 23 people were killed by drunk drivers across the nation on Christmas Day.

According to a news release, last year's crackdown saw police issue 49,000 tickets to motorists for speeding, distracted driving, and traveling in the left lane. Additionally, 702 people were arrested for drunk driving.

So you are also saying there is no intent for this to be a public safety activity?
You don't feel that lives can be saved or accidents prevented by this activity...it is only a money grab for you???
Is that correct????

Taking drunk drivers off the road, saves lives.  Anyone disagree???

I'm beginning to think the group of bumbles includes MC1


We are advised NOT to judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics.   Funny how that works.

I am going out on a limb here and guessing that all of the law enforcement agencies in the state scheduled their Christmas parties for the period before December 18.  

Be safe - don't drink and drive!
