Jennings insists most first offenses warrant hard sentences, while noting some cases may be mitigated by circumstances. Several drunken driving charges were heard as local court sessions continued, with fines issued and others pending, alongside traffic incidents on the Post Road and Shore Road. The drive to curb dangerous driving includes enforcement along Main Street and the Danbury Road toward Weston, amid calls for broader community action and a planned chamber meeting.
