Tis' the season for holiday parties and cheer, that time of year for gift giving, eggnog, rum cakes, and Dom Perignon. Tis' also the season for Operation 3D, where the gift giving consists of a public awareness plan of heightened DUI patrols and DUI checkpoints.
When we think of holiday activities we think of the local church Christmas play or the Nutcracker. However, Hillsborough County has another activity in store, an activity that will serve to encourage compliance of the existing traffic laws by motorists. Operation 3D will also focus on motorists who drink and drive.
As most would agree there is no excuse for driving while under the influence of alcohol. However, the holiday season makes us merrier than other times of the year, where we enjoy eating, drinking, and being merry. We never think of the dangers when we hit the roadways. We do not stop to think that once we enter our vehicles after a few merry drinks, that we have now entered a 4,000 lb weapon, the weight of the average American car. Driving while under the influence of alcohol, is a sure set up for target practice where our fellow drivers on the road or the pedestrians in the street become the target.
Operation 3D, is going to ensure that our roadways are safe this holiday season where they have scheduled heightened patrols and checkpoints throughout the county.
Although most of us do not intend to drink and drive, the hard truth is that we do. During these heightened patrols the odds are, you will be pulled over, or you will travel through a DUI checkpoint. The consequences of driving under the influence of alcohol can be catastrophic if you have been charged with DUI, you will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. This is when you will need an experienced and aggressive DUI Attorney, where your case will be thoroughly reviewed and your best interests protected.
