Yet, a silver lining: zero DUI-related deaths for the third straight year, thanks to strong enforcement that netted 27 arrests, 700+ speeding tickets, and 116 seatbelt citations. With 14 crashes investigated and over 600 motorist assists logged, the data underscores a critical message: stay sober, stay focused, and buckle up — every single time you drive.
