CT DUI Checkpoints, Roving Patrols Continue Through Labor Day Weekend 2015

State Police are adding an extra weekend of additional patrols during this second to last weekend of the summer of 2015.

In an effort to continue a safe summer driving season, state troopers began patrolling on Aug. 27. The holiday patrols will end Sept. 2, in anticipation of more drivers on the roads due to school and last minute vacations or day trips.

“Troopers are standing by to eliminate dangerous drivers from Connecticut roads and highways,” noted Colonel Brian Meraviglia, Commanding Officer of the Connecticut State Police. “As the summer season ends, Troopers will be especially vigilant to find and remove drunk drivers, as well as those who defy the cell phone prohibition. Both of these violations are illegal and dangerous to all who travel our roadways.”

Connecticut State Police urges drivers to buckle up, avoid distractions and stay sober when behind the wheel.
