(Deming) – State Police and Luna County Sheriff’s Department officers are continuing to conduct sobriety checkpoints, saturation patrols, and registration, insurance and drivers’ license checkpoints through September.
The efforts are the conclusion of the 100 Days and Nights of Summer emphasis to enforce traffic laws.
Reportedly, studies have shown a significant reduction in alcohol-related fatalities directly attributed to the continued media attention and intensive advertising about DUI and other traffic-related concerns.
Officials say checkpoints are helping change society’s attitude about drinking and driving, resulting in people choosing not to drive while under the influence of alcohol or narcotics.
Luna County Sheriff’s officials are reminding drivers to watch for children in school zones, watch their speed, properly buckle themselves and their children, never text while driving or otherwise drive distracted, and never drive impaired.
