From the Longmont Times Call…
LONGMONT — Six Longmont police officers will be dedicated to a special DUI patrol Friday night and Saturday morning, according to Sgt. Mike Bell.
The saturation patrol is scheduled to begin at 5 p.m. on Friday and will continue until 4 a.m. Saturday.
“The Longmont Police Department wants to send a strong message to motorists for the rest of the summer and during the National Crackdown Labor Day enforcement period that drunken and drugged driving will not be tolerated,” Bell wrote in a prepared statement.
Bell recommended that designated drivers be selected to drive for friends or family who drink alcohol. He also recommended public transportation, taxi cabs, for those who have been drinking.
My suggestion is to be very very careful, it’s way too easy to be DWI or DWAI. Calculate your BAC with this handy dandy calculator!
Here’s a BAC chart as well.
Also, a DUI and DWAI conviction stays with you for life, so you really really want to avoid one.
