The Colorado Department of Transportation, Colorado State Patrol and local law agencies will team up for the Halloween-heightened DUI enforcement period from Thursday through Monday.
The annual Heat Is On Halloween enforcement will include 90 Colorado law enforcement agencies to ensure all drivers get home safely.
Last year, the Heat Is On Halloween DUI enforcement resulted in 378 arrests. With more pedestrians out on Halloween evening, CDOT urges people who plan to drive to do so sober. There are also many alternative options to driving under the influence, including public transportation and ride-hailing services.
Last year, there were 209 passenger vehicle fatalities on Colorado roads involving impaired drivers, accounting for more than one-third of all traffic fatalities in 2018.
A complete list of arrests is at www.heatisoncolorado.com under the Heat Is On Arrest tab.
