DUI crackdown highlighted by tragic local crashes

Robinson pressed a strict DUI policy citing a head on collision on Chester Highway where two high school girls were injured and a drunken operator died. He warned many DUI arrests involve drug impairment, noting a March 1989 Route 322 crash left a 6 year old girl paralyzed. He urged enforcement while dismissing publication embarrassment as negligible against lives ruined by alcohol and drug impaired driving.
