INCREASED DWI PATROLS
One in seven Minnesotans has a DWI on record — they have experienced the embarrassment, loss of license, jail time and the huge costs associated with an arrest — sometimes more than $20,000.
In 2012, Olmsted County Sheriff’s Deputies and Rochester Police Officers will increase DWI patrols to arrest drunk drivers.
Don’t risk getting behind the wheel impaired. Have a plan for a safe and sober ride, buckle up — and insist your passengers buckle up, too.
A life-saving message from the Olmsted County Sheriff’s Office.
