Mesa Police Department’s traffic unit will continue its support of the Governor’s Office of Highway Safety DUI Labor Day Task Force beginning Friday, Aug. 29 until Monday, Sept. 1.
Emphasized hours will take place from 5 p.m. to 3 a.m. Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Saturation patrol for Monday will take place from 12 p.m. to 10 p.m., according to a release.
Local law enforcement agencies will participate in the annual DUI Task Force, a coordinated enforcement effort dedicated to improving public safety.
The mission of the DUI Task Force is clear: to remove impaired drivers from the road, enhance roadway safety across the Valley, and reduce the number of collisions caused by impaired driving. By decreasing these preventable incidents, the task force aims to lower the number of injuries and fatalities directly linked to impaired driving, ultimately making our streets safer for everyone.
The Mesa Police Department encourages everyone to enjoy the holiday weekend responsibly and designate a driver or use a rideshare company.
Report reckless, unsafe or suspected DUI driving to your local law enforcement. Mesa Police Department’s non-emergency line is 480-644-2211.
