Florida Highway Patrol DUI Crackdown
Last Friday, September 23rd began the Florida Highway Patrol's all-out attempt to catch any drivers who may have been drinking before getting on the road. The self-proclaimed "wolf pack" stationed themselves throughout Highlands County on Friday evening, from 8:30 p.m. until 2 a.m. Saturday.
The team of troopers stationed along major and secondary roadways throughout the Florida county had one main purpose: to catch impaired drivers. The team felt there would be a high probability of intoxicated drivers among the areas in which they positioned themselves on Friday night and Saturday morning, and they were ready and waiting to nab any that came their way.
The deliberate purpose of last Friday's staging of officers is a perfect example of the state's strict enforcement of DUI law. If you or someone you know was implicated during this time of the planned attempt to catch drunk drivers, then you are entitled to legal defense.
