Sometime during the month of August the Missouri State Highway Patrol plans to hold DWI saturations in Buchanan and Clinton counties.

According to a news release, the areas selected for enforcement are based on a high number of drinking-related crashes and contacts with drivers who have been drinking. Capt. James E. McDonald with Troop H said officers’ input will also be taken into consideration for operation locations to make contact with DWI violators.

“The Missouri State Highway Patrol is dedicated to removing impaired drivers from Missouri roadways,” Capt. McDonald said. “Anytime your plans include alcohol, please have a sober designated driver.”
