Interesting

A: Although certainly not found as often as DUIs (An interesting side note: Dodge City has one of the highest rates of DUIs in the state of Kansas), PUIs, or pedestrians under the influence, do come across the jail log every once in a while.

I noticed that too this morning JW. Mark slipped that little stat in there and it caught my eye. Just when I thought Dodge was never going to lead the way on anything I get proven wrong. We have one of the highest rates for DUI's. I wonder if that means our police are cracking down or we just have a lot of drunk drivers on the streets?

If we have that many DUI's out there it makes out roads one of the unsafest in KS also.

As the rate of illegals goes up, so does the rate of DUI's.
And thank your local PD for getting them off the street.
