A DWI saturation held last weekend in Caldwell County ended in two arrests and numerous warnings.

The Missouri State Highway Patrol said the saturation was held from 7 p.m. on March 19, 2016, to 3 a.m. on March 20, 2016. During this enforcement operation, six officers patrolled Caldwell County with a goal of detecting impaired drivers and other traffic violations that contribute to traffic crashes. As a result of the operation, there were two arrests for driving while intoxicated, 11 traffic citations issued, and 53 warnings given.

“Impaired driving poses a significant threat to motorists on Missouri’s roadways,” said Captain James McDonald. “One of the Missouri State Highway Patrol’s highest priorities is removing the impaired driver from our roadways. If drinking is part of your plans, choose a sober designated driver.”
