The San Luis Police Department will be conducting traffic (STEP) and DUI enforcement details from Thursday, July 3rd to Saturday, July 5th for to the Independence Day celebration. The SLPD officers will provide enhanced traffic and DUI enforcement in support of a grant awarded by the Arizona Governor’s Office of Highway Safety (GOHS).
The objective of the traffic enforcement program is to reduce the number of vehicle collisions and the resulting injuries and fatalities through increased highly visible enforcement. Police officers will focus on seatbelt violations, impaired driving, speeding, use of electronic devices while driving and pedestrian safety. Increased patrol efforts will be focused throughout different areas in the City of San Luis. We remind motorists and passengers it only takes a second or two to fasten a seat belt. A seatbelt could help save your life. If you are drinking, designate a sober driver. If you are hosting a 4th of July gathering, help your guests find a designated driver or make arrangements for them to stay. Buzzed driving is drunk driving, help us celebrate our independence responsibly!
Please report suspected DUI, reckless, and unsafe driving to the San Luis Police Department at (928) 341-2420 for non-emergencies, 911 for emergencies or 78-Crime at 782-7463 to remain anonymous. IF YOU SEE SOMETHING, SAY SOMETHING!
