Kane County officials will step up their enforcement of drunken driving laws during the July 4 holiday period with another so-called "no-refusal" weekend.
Police will be pulling over drivers they suspect are intoxicated at undisclosed locations in the county. Prosecutors will be on call to draft search warrants aimed at compelling the drivers to provide breath, blood or urine samples.
Those who refuse to comply could face other sanctions. Prosecutors say the aim is to thwart DUI offenders, particularly repeat offenders, who believe they have a better chance at avoiding a conviction by refusing to provide breath or blood evidence.
For further information, contact your Kane County DUI Attorney or your Kane County DUI Lawyer.
