"Mobile Jail" Roundup

2007-08-26 1 Dailymotion

The state of Tennessee is introducing a new tactic to catch drunk drivers. A D.U.I trailer is part of the state's "Booze It and Loose It" campaign underway right now. <br /><br />The program kicked off on Ashland Terrace Tuesday night. The Governor's Highway Safety Office introduced a sort-of "mobile jail" to help officers book drunk drivers at the scene of a checkpoint. Already, the new effort has been a success. <br /><br />"Have you had anything to drink tonight, any alcohol?" an officer asked a motorist. Red Bank and Signal Mountain Police are out in full force. <br /><br />"If you're drinking and driving, don't come out here," said Red Bank Sergeant Steve Dillard. They're checking for anything and everything. "Violation of tags, light laws, not wearing seat belts," he said. <br /><br />Tuesday night's sobriety checkpoint focused on drunk drivers. "DUI is a very serious problem and we want to do our best to keep impaired drivers off our roads," Sgt. Dillard added. <br /><br />On site, a new tool helps officers speed up the crack down. "It's going to expedite our process of processing our paperwork by having this here on the scene," Dillard said. <br /><br /><a class="link" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.wrcbtv.com/news/index.cfm?sid=10665">http://www.wrcbtv.com/news/index.cfm?sid=10665</a> <br /><br /><a class="link" rel="nofollow" href="http://nevernwo.blogspot.com/">http://nevernwo.blogspot.com/</a>
