DWI’s Have Dropped in Erie County Dramatically–Why?
It seems that it takes New York State forever to get things done. Uber debuted in cities over 5 years ago and New York State just celebrated one year of having Uber.
Suddenly, the DWI's in Erie County are going down, we're sure from the availability of getting a cheap and easy ride home.
Through July 8, 2018: 1,336 drunken driving arrests
2017 through July 8: 1,420 drunken driving arrests
DWI convictions have actually dropped 20% since 2013 as well!
2013: 3,316
2014: 3,160
2015: 2,739
2016: 2,764
2017: 2,653
