‘Report Drunk Drivers. Call 911’
The following is a list of tips and signs that will help to identify Drunk Drivers on the road. If you see a driver that appears to be driving under the influence, call 911 and report their location to police.
- Weaving/swerving in and out of the lane
- Weaving within the lane quite noticeably
- Traveling at speeds much slower than the flow of traffic
- Braking erratically or stopping in the lane
- Sudden stops for signal lights and slow start once they change
- Remaining at the signal lights once they turn green – asleep at the wheel
- Making wide turns and/or cutting the corner striking the curb
- Headlights off at night or on high beams
- Driving with the turn signals on
- Straddling the center line of the road or lane lines
- The Driver looks intoxicated – starring straight ahead, face close to the windshield, and/or appears to by quite sleepy
- Aggressive driving – speed, tailgating and multiple lane changes or unsafe passing may be the tell-tale signs of intoxication
