Delaware drunk driving law struck down by state Supreme Court
The Delaware Supreme Court invalidated the Crackdown On Drunken Drivers statute on a technicality, nullifying charges against about 1,150 arrestees through Jan. 30 and forcing a return to the old law with lighter penalties. Gov. Pierre du Pont IV planned a special session to reintroduce a compliant measure, while officials review licenses, jail status, and plea agreements.
