Nassau County is looking for new ways to make the roads safer for drivers by cracking down on DWI arrests.  The Selective Enforcement Team (SET) will return this year with a focus on finding DWI hot spots and establishing checkpoints.  The new DWI Alcohol-Related Incident Team will be targeting drunk drivers not just this Memorial Day weekend, but all year round.

The DWI program was initially abandoned in 2011 because it was thought that it was not an effective tool in the department’s DWI-enforcement strategy.  However, new reports show that the program could be effective.  According to Mangano, the program is “looking to prevent senseless alcohol-related accidents and looking up those who break the law.”  The 2014 version of the Set unit will become part of the county’s broader crime-fighting strategy.
