This program, which is totally funded by fines and bail forfeitures collected from alcohol related traffic convictions, continues to be a model for other jurisdictions in the fight against drunk driving. A specially designed STOP-DWI program developed in cooperation with BOCES has proven to be very successful with high school students in the five east end towns. STOP-DWI will continue to work toward the reduction of drinking and driving in Suffolk through its support of increased enforcement, swift and certain prosecution, sound and cost effective rehabilitation, tough probation, and public information and education campaigns.
