DUI Stops

The one thing that stuck out to me about DUI stops is that the roadside tests that law enforcement officers administer across this country are standardized. They are the same in every state and thus must me done correctly. It is so important that we get people who are driving drunk off of our roads for the safety of our society. The highlight of the DUI training was the "wet lab" in which many volunteers drank various amounts of alcohol and then we got to practice recognizing signs of alcohol use and administer the roadside tests to them. This allowed us to get real life experience so thanks to all of the volunteers who helped us!
