DWI Rates High on Fourth of July!

(516) 319-5822

Last Fourth of July there were 100 DWI arrests in Long Island. Sadly, only 2 percent of drunk drivers are caught, meaning there could have been as many as 5,000 people driving under the influence on Long Island last Fourth of July.


With that said, Rep. Steve Israel, MADD, and DADSS called on Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood to spend 10.5 million from the Surface Transportation bill to be used in anti-DWI technology research.

While we wait for this technology to be put into affect, reporting drunk driving and taking away someone’s keys are important prevention strategies.
