The holiday season is once again upon us. And for law enforcement that means increased drunk driving patrols and more DUI investigations in and around Washington State.

As an example of this, public records indicate that more than 50 people were arrested for drunken driving during the Thanksgiving week. One of these arrests actually included a man in his 70s who allegedly hit another man and a woman with his car in a Walmart parking lot. According to police, the individuals all were at Walmart for Black Friday deals.

The penalties associated with DUI charges are steep, and include the required installation of an ignition interlock device, which costs approximately $80 – $100 per month, and don’t forget about attorney’s fees because it wouldn’t be wise to handle a DUI case without the help of a seasoned DUI attorney.
