The numbers show troopers are looking out for impaired drivers, law enforcement said.
Officers arrested 38 drivers in January whose blood alcohol level breached Utah's stringent new DUI law. But just four of those arrested were violating the new rule alone, the Utah Department of Public Safety reported Monday. The rest were underage or had other drugs in their system, for example.
Utah Highway Patrol Sergeant Nicholas Street told local station Fox 13 this showed officers were arresting people because they were impaired. “We’re not saying people can’t drink. You can certainly access a drink, and you can drink until your eyes bug out if you want. We’re just saying don’t drive and drink,” Herbert added.
