A multi-agency DUII mission over the holiday weekend resulted in numerous arrests and citations.

Over the holiday weekend, the Portland Police Bureau's Traffic Division, in collaboration with partner agencies, conducted DUII enforcement missions. PPB members arrested at least 14 drivers for Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants. In addition, PPB personnel issued more than 120 citations and approximately 22 warnings.

PPB and its partners encourage people to drive safely and drive sober. Each year, law enforcement personnel respond to preventable collisions that can deeply impact those involved, their families, and loved ones. All road users are encouraged to avoid actions that might lead to a collision, including impairment, speed, distraction, and disobeying signals.

PPB would like to remind the public that drug-impaired driving is just as dangerous (and illegal) as alcohol-impaired driving. Officers will be taking a zero-tolerance approach to all forms of impaired driving. Drink responsibly and remember buzzed driving is drunk driving.
