DUI Task Forces

Effective DUI task forces are an important mechanism for decreasing the state’s alcohol-related injury and fatality rates.

DUI task forces are multi-faceted coalitions that invite participation from a cross-section of community representatives in order to maximize their reach and effectiveness. Initial funding comes from driver license reinstatement fees. The task forces operate at the county level to reduce and prevent impaired driving, and may engage in a variety of activities such as:
  • responsible alcohol sales & service trainings to prevent over-service and service to minors
  • alcohol sales compliance checks of establishments
  • party and kegger patrols
  • overtime traffic patrols
  • educational projects
  • public service announcements
  • support for prosecution and adjudication of DUI cases
  • Victims impact panels
  • policy and legislative proposals
  • designated driver programs
  • safe ride home programs
