2A | TUESDAY, DECEMBER 24, 2019 | SIUSLAW NEWS On The Record Lane County Sheriffs to participate in national DUII saturation patrols Lane County Sheriff ’s Office deputies are par- ticipating in a nationwide saturation patrol with a fo- cus on reducing impaired driving and related vehicle crashes. These saturation patrols began Dec. 13 and will continue through Jan. 20. These overtime patrols are funded by a grant ad- ministered by the Oregon Department of Transporta- tion and allow the Sheriff ’s Office to perform traffic enforcement that deputies would not normally be able to do without the special, allocated funding. This saturation is in con- junction with a nationwide effort to reduce drunk and impaired driving over the holiday season. The U.S. Department of Transportation reports that over the past five years, an average of 300 people died in drunk driving crashes the week between Christ- mas and New Year’s na- tionally. In 2016, 781 peo- ple lost their lives in drunk driving related crashes in the month of December nationwide. The Lane County Sher- iff ’s Office wants to remind motorists to drive safely during the typically haz- ardous conditions this time of year, drive sober and utilize designated drivers, taxis or other public trans- portation if they choose to drink. With the passage of Oregon’s marijuana laws, this is also a reminder of the impairment marijuana creates of drivers, impact- ing their ability to safely operate a motor vehicle. Driving Under the Influ- ence of Intoxicants (DUII) applies to drivers under the influence of marijuana, as it does with alcohol.
