Governor Richardson Announces New DWI Initiatives
Governor Bill Richardson today announced several new initiatives designed to reduce death and injury due to DWI in New Mexico.
“We have gotten tougher on drunk drivers every year since I became Governor,” said Governor Richardson. “We have done a lot, but as the tragedy that struck the Collins, Garcia and Gonzales families of Las Vegas last November and the wrong way crash at I-25 and Gibson this week indicates, we must do more.”
New initiatives announced today include:
1. Starting today, by dialing # DWI (#394) from any cell phone, New Mexicans will instantly be in touch with DrunkBusters dispatchers to report suspected drunken drivers. Thanks to the cooperation of cell phone providers across the state, including Alltel, Cingular, Cricket, Plateau, T-Mobile and Verizon Wireless, New Mexico now has a simpler way to report drunk drivers.
