The St. Charles Police Department conducted additional traffic enforcement in the week leading up to and including Halloween. These extra patrols were held in conjunction with the nationwide Click It or Ticket/Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over enforcement effort. The St. Charles Police joined other state and local law enforcement agencies across Illinois with their effort. The department also worked alongside the Kane County States Attorney’s Office in conducting a “no refusal” weekend in conjunction with this statewide initiative.
During the mobilization, the detailed officers:
• Arrested 5 drivers for DUI.
• Arrested 2 drivers for a license-related offense.
• Issued 24 total citations for speed offenses.
• Issued 17 citations for various other driving offenses.
• Officers also wrote 14 warning citations.
The Click It or Ticket/Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over mobilization was made possible with federal highway safety funds administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation.
