That’s why, after all, police tend to set up checkpoints and be out in greater numbers over Friday and Saturday evenings, as well as over festive holidays, like Memorial Day and July 4th.
Did you know, however, that you may be more likely to be stopped for suspicion of DUI based on where you drive – not just when you drive? Well, a recently published study has highlighted this point, revealing the top locations in Denver – and throughout the country – where motorists are most likely to be arrested for allegedly driving drunk.
This study, which was conducted by Project Know, primarily focused on data from the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI), and its findings are eye-opening.
