The Arizona Department of Public Safety is working with California and Nevada troopers in a “maximum enforcement” effort over the Labor Day weekend.
Last year on the holiday weekend, AZDPS troopers made 87 arrests for impaired driving, enforced more than 3,400 speed violations and investigated four fatal collisions, according to a DPS release.
The tri-state Maximum Enforcement Period begins at 6:01 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 1, and continues through 11:59 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 4.
“Getting behind the wheel of a vehicle while impaired by alcohol and/or drugs puts every driver, passenger and pedestrian on our roads at risk,” said Col. Jeffrey Glover, director of AZDPS.
“All too often, troopers investigate fatal or serious injury collisions caused by impaired drivers.”
