WHAT IS STOP- DWI?SPECIAL TRAFFIC OPTIONS PROGRAMESTABLISHED BY NYS GOVERNMENT ON JULY 31, 1981 NOVEMBER 28, 1981 LAW BECOMES EFFECTIVE AND PROVIDES THE RETURN OF FINE MONEY FOR DWI’S TO THE COUNTIES IN WHICH THEY INCURRED……. PROVIDING…… THAT COUNTY ESTABLISHES A STOP DWI PROGRAM DECEMBER 1981…..ONEIDA COUNTY ESTABLISHES A STOP DWI PROGRAM Previous research has indicated that the most effective method of combating drinking and driving is to use the general deterrence model. This model gives priority to arresting those who drive while under the influence of alcohol, swift adjudication of individual cases, certain and severe punishment for those convicted and publicity for the arrest and prosecution efforts.

THE OC STOP DWI PROGRAM MUST SUBMIT AN ANNUAL PLAN TO THE NYS DMV FOR APPROVAL…….

LAW ENFORCEMENT: Special selective enforcement units that patrol at Peak hours in high risk areas where alcohol-involved motor vehicle crashes occurred. (16 area police agencies)

PROSECUTION: A Special prosecution unit in the OC District Attorney’s office handles all DWI cases prosecuted in our County.

EVALUATION AND TREATMENT: The Oneida County Probation Department and local Alcoholism and Substance Abuse providers evaluate and treat those who have been convicted of DWI and related offenses and have a need for professional counseling.

KEY COMPONENTS OF THE STOP DWI PROGRAM INCLUDE:

VICTIM’S IMPACT PANEL (VIP): This aggressive sentencing initiative paints the real picture of what DWI can do. Victims of Drunk Driving crashes speak directly to sentenced DWI offenders in a court-like setting. Defendant’s attitudes and behavior are modified by showing the pain that someone else’s choice to drink and drive has caused.

DETECTION AND ENFORCEMENT EQUIPMENT: The STOP DWI Program purchases radar, breathalyzers, driver’s license validation viewers and field screening devices. These tools serve to enhance the aggressive effort to keep intoxicated motorist off our roads and insuring the safety of all who travel throughout Oneida County.

COMMUNITY AWARENESS AND EDUCATION: The STOP DWI Program conducts community awareness and education presentations for all interested groups and organizations.
