Edgar urges tougher law on drunk driving
Illinois secretary of state James Edgar meets Southern Illinois Republicans urging a tighter anti drunken driving bill from the Motor Vehicles Laws Commission. The plan would let police choose among three tests, admit refusal as evidence, and raise license suspensions from three to six months. Edgar aims for budget restraint with no new programs, and will expand staff in Chicago suburbs. He will manage patronage through county chairs under merit hiring.
