The Scottsdale Police Department, in collaboration with the Governor’s Office of Highway Safety, will be conducting DUI task forces and saturation patrol from July 1 through July 4, for the Fourth of July holiday.
Participating in the DUI task force will be the following agencies:
- Chandler Police Department
- Department of Public Safety
- Gilbert Police Department
- Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office
- Mesa Police Department
- Salt River Police Department
- Tempe Police Department
The goal of the officers assigned to the task force is to contact those drivers that have made the decision to drive impaired and remove them from the roadway before they hurt themselves or others, according to a press release.
As always, the best choice someone can make during this holiday weekend, should they plan on consuming alcoholic beverages or using marijuana, is to find some other form of transportation that does not involve them operating a motor vehicle.
Officials urge the public to drive safely or find an alternate way home.
