Funds received from the Arizona Governor's Office of Highway Safety (GOHS) will be used by Show Low Police Department Officers to enforce DUI laws and participate with the White Mountain DUI Task Force.
The grant will also allow Officers to enforce speed, criminal speed, and aggressive driving laws, host Advanced Roadside Impaired Driver Education Training (ARIDE) courses for the White Mountain DUI Task Force as well as purchase of eight new radars for speed enforcement. The financial, criminal, and human cost of driving impaired places a heavy burden on all involved. Increased enforcement will take place throughout the grant cycle and with the goal to have Officers highly visible, aggressively enforcing DUI laws, removing impaired drivers from the roadway, and helping to keep our highways safe for travel. Show Low Police Department is proud to partner with the Arizona Governor's Officer of Highway Safety, and the Oversight Council on Driving or Operating Under the Influence Abatement. Working together we can ensure safer conditions for motorists on Arizona highways.
