Washington County Crime: Sheriff's Office Releases Details of Drunk Driving Enforcement

The message is clear - if you drink, don't drive.

Yet, the Washington County Sheriff's Office keeps finding people who don't seem to get it.

In March, they arrested 88 impaired drivers.

Of those, at least nine were impaired by drugs.

In addition, they issued 10 minor in possession of alcohol violations.

Many of the arrests were made by officers working overtime with funding from a grant provided by the Oregon Department of Transportation and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

The Sheriff's Office says the enhanced DUII patrols will continue in April.
