Los Angeles, CA - This year, the Los Angeles County drunk driving task force will participate in a nationwide crackdown on impaired driving termed "Driving Drunk. Over the Limit. Under Arrest."
The coordinated increased patrol and other efforts will continue through Labor Day weekend. The national program, in which Los Angeles police DUI officers are participating was spearheaded by the United States Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
NHTSA is the agency responsible for validating field sobriety testing, drug recognition training and other police officer programs aimed at combating impaired driving.
In Los Angeles, the program is funded by the California Office of Traffic Safety.
At the time of publication of this article it was unclear how many Los Angeles area DUI arrests were made over the weekend as a direct result of the program. We will report the numbers when they are available.
