Burton Mail
|December 19, 2025
MORE than 70 suspected drink or drug drivers have been arrested in just over two weeks.
Police have carried out more than 700 roadside tests as part of a major crackdown in Staffordshire.
The operation, launched at the end of November, targets 'those putting themselves and others in danger on our roads'.
The following fortnight saw police carry out 734 roadside tests on drivers, including 690 breath tests and 76 drug wipes.
As a result, 46 people have been arrested on suspicion of drink-driving, while 30 have been arrested on suspicion of drug-driving.
