In addition to driving under the influence, enforcement will also include aggressive driving, unlicensed or suspended operator licenses, proof of insurance, vehicle registration, vehicle equipment, and other traffic violations.

The North Penn DUI Task Force would also like to remind those who chose to drink, not to drive and seek other available transportation options.
