Missouri Targets Drunk Drivers This July | St. Louis News

Missouri’s Highway Patrol is going all-in this Fourth of July, deploying every trooper to arrest drunk drivers and keep roads safe—last year they made 118 arrests during the same holiday. With stories like Alexander Whalen, turning 31 this Sunday, and David Weinstein, killed before his 30th, MADD reminds us: every life lost is a family shattered. Seeing these faces on billboards keeps their memory alive and fuels the push to prevent more tragedies. Officials urge you: if you’re drinking, don’t drive. Rideshares, taxis, and designated drivers are free, easy, and lifesaving. The Patrol’s message? Every impaired driver they catch will be arrested—this is not a warning, it’s a promise to protect your community.
