Final Reminder: New York State Department of Motor Vehicles Announces STOP-DWI Month

The New York State Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) announced the start of STOP-DWI Month in New York State. Governor Andrew M. Cuomo recently issued a proclamation designating the month of November as STOP-DWI Month in New York. The New York State Special Traffic Options for Driving While Intoxicated (STOP-DWI) Program was established in November of 1981 to coordinate state and local efforts to reduce impaired-driving offenses and to prevent crashes across the state. Since the program was enacted, fatalities from alcohol-related crashes on New York’s roadways have decreased 74 percent. - Long Island News & PR
