Getting Away With DUI

Last week it was an officer who got away with DUI, but today it's about ordinary citizens. Apparently, in the Vineyard, alcohol is something you can easily drink before you plan to drive. After all, the court dismisses many cases of drunk driving.

For example, one man was seen stopping 10 yards after a limit line of a stop sign. The officer who gave him the fine smelled alcohol and conducted a field sobriety test, in which the man failed. After that, in official tests, he failed with 0.1% BAC. However, the DUI charge was dismissed and the man only received a fine for the stop sign violation.

The police need to get themselves together and start making better decisions. It's impossible to fight drunk driving with such soft hand.
