The Pinal County Attorney's Office (PCAO) has announced the launch of a new safe driving campaign aimed at addressing a worrying increase in Felony Driving Under the Influence (DUI) cases across the county. The campaign, which features the slogan "Drive Drunk or High, People Might Die," will be promoted at various events, on community handouts, and in future messaging.
County Attorney Kent Volkmer expressed concern over the rising number of individuals getting behind the wheel while impaired, stating, "A single impaired driver puts other families at risk and it's not acceptable." In 2022, PCAO charged 243 Felony DUI cases, representing a 75% increase from 2021. So far in 2023, the PCAO has charged over 115 Felony DUIs, indicating that this year's total will likely surpass last year's.SanTanValley.com is your #1 resource for anything in and around San Tan Valley, AZ.
