This initiative coincides with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration\u2019s \u201cDrive Sober or Get Pulled Over\u201d mobilization to increase impaired driving enforcement nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Coopertown Police will be stepping up traffic enforcement to identify impaired drivers and get them off the road. Increased state and national messaging about the dangers of drunk driving, coupled with increased sobriety checkpoints and high visibility enforcement, aim to drastically reduce the number of drunk driving crashes, injuries, and fatalities this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The consequences of a single DUI conviction for a first-time offender in the state of Tennessee may include costly fines, court costs, legal fees, jail time, mandatory drug and alcohol treatment, and\/or the installation of an ignition interlock device in his\/her vehicle. The THSO provides grant funding to support Coopertown Police Department\u2019s increased enforcement efforts during the <em>Booze It and Lose It<\/em> campaign.
