Montgomery County Vehicular Crimes Task Force conducting St. Patricks Day DWI Operation
On March 17, 2025, the Montgomery County Vehicular Crimes Task Force will execute a St. Patrick’s Day DWI Task Force Operation, focusing on reducing impaired driving in the region. This operation will see the collaboration of numerous law enforcement agencies contributing officers for targeted traffic stops and responses to suspected intoxicated drivers. The District Attorney’s Office will enforce a No Refusal Blood Draw Program, which facilitates the swift collection of blood samples from those arrested for DWI. This program allows for expedited procedures when offenders refuse to submit voluntarily, ensuring that justice is served effectively.
Participating agencies include the Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office and several local police departments, along with support from Mothers Against Drunk Driving. The initiative aims to enhance roadway safety and combat impaired driving through heightened visibility and enforcement. Overall, the task force seeks to improve the investigation and prosecution of vehicular crimes, reflecting a strong commitment to public safety. The collaborative effort highlights the importance of community involvement in addressing the critical issue of impaired driving.
