State Police arrested 739 people for driving while intoxicated during the Driver Sober or Get Pulled Over crackdown on impaired driving.

The campaign ran from August 19th to September 5th.  219 DWI arrests occurred during Labor Day weekend alone.

"Impaired and reckless drivers are danger to themselves and others on New York's roadways and we have zero tolerance for this dangerous and selfish behavior," Governor Cuomo said. "I thank state and local law enforcement for their efforts to get these menaces out from behind the wheel and off our streets and for their continuing efforts to protect the safety of all New Yorkers."

State Police and local law enforcement agencies also targeted drivers who were distracted, speeding, not wearing seatbelts, and not abiding by the “move over” law.

Troopers issued more than 43,000 tickets during the 18 day enforcement period.
