DEER PARK POLICE DEPT. RELEASE
The Deer Park Police Department has been awarded the Impaired Driver Mobilization Grant through the Texas Department of Transportation. The grant is in conjunction with the states “Drink. Drive. Go To Jail” campaign which will allow the department to provide extra staffing hours between June 30, 2012 – July 8, 2012 with the sole purpose of locating and arresting impaired drivers. To accomplish this we will be saturating the high risk areas with extra patrol to ensure compliance through visibility and enforcement.
In addition Deer Park Police will be working with the Harris County District Attorney's Office to obtain search warrants for blood specimens in support of the Statewide "No Refusal" process, when a suspected drunk driver refuses to provide a breath specimen.
Through these efforts we hope to make Deer Park a safer place for you and your loved ones.
