The Missouri State Highway Patrol has announced it plans to hold a DWI saturation in DeKalb County sometime this month.

Capt. James E. McDonald, commanding officer of Troop H, said the areas selected for enforcement are based on a high number of drinking-related crashes, high number of contacts with drivers who have been drinking, and officers’ input as to probable contact with DWI violators.

“The Missouri State Highway Patrol is dedicated to removing impaired drivers from Missouri roadways,” stated Captain McDonald. “Anytime your plans include alcohol, choose a sober designated driver.”
