From 6 p.m. to 11 p.m., Penndel and Middletown police will have extra officers carrying out DUI enforcement patrol. Officers in Newtown Borough, Newtown Township, Richland, Warrington, Plumstead, Upper Southampton, and Lower Southampton will also being ramping up enforcement.
“Root for the Rams, we don’t care. Root for the Patriots? Don’t you dare!” District Attorney Matt Weintraub said. “But if you drink and drive after the Super Bowl, you’ll be busted by the DUI patrol. Don’t drink or do drugs and drive. Get home safe, and alive.”
The extra enforcement is being paid for through grant money from PennDOT and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
