<strong>Cranford</strong> <strong>Police</strong> <strong>Department</strong> Driving While Intoxicated Program<br />
<strong>2011</strong> we participated in the Driver Sober or Get<br />
Pulled Over program sponsored by the New<br />
Jersey Division of Highway Traffic Safety.<br />
The extra patrol program consists of putting<br />
extra patrols out on selected weekends (usually<br />
holidays) with the specific assignment of<br />
detecting and apprehending drivers who are<br />
under the influence. Over the Limit Under arrest<br />
<strong>2011</strong> Impaired Driving Crackdown is a campaign<br />
that ran from August 19, <strong>2011</strong> through<br />
September 5, <strong>2011</strong>. During this eighteen-day<br />
period, officers assigned to this campaign made<br />
Three (3) DWI arrest and issued (331)<br />
summonses for various violations. Drive Sober<br />
or Get Pulled Over <strong>2011</strong> Year End Crackdown<br />
campaign ran from December 5, <strong>2011</strong> to January<br />
2, 2012. During this twenty-nine day period,<br />
officers assigned to this campaign made six (12)<br />
DWI arrests and issued (375) summons for<br />
various violations.<br />
In the <strong>com</strong>ing year we will continue to provide<br />
educational programs by way of lectures and<br />
demonstrations on the hazards of drunk driving<br />
to the various religious, civic, and educational<br />
organizations within the <strong>com</strong>munity. In<br />
conjunction with these educational programs we<br />
will continue to vigorously enforce the drunk<br />
driving laws of our state utilizing patrol and<br />
additional enforcement activities.<br />
The problem of drinking and driving is one that<br />
continues to demand constant attention. It is<br />
only through the <strong>com</strong>bined efforts of education<br />
and enforcement that we will continue to strive<br />
for a reduction in the senseless and too often<br />
tragic accidents that occur on our roadways. The<br />
citizens of our <strong>com</strong>munity can be assured that<br />
the men and women of the <strong>Cranford</strong> <strong>Police</strong><br />
<strong>Department</strong> will do everything in their power to<br />
ensure that the streets of our <strong>com</strong>munity remain<br />
some of the safest in which to live, play, work,<br />
and drive in the nation.<br />
