Denver, Colorado, United States, 07/03/2015 /SubmitPressRelease123/

Colorado law enforcement turns up the heat during the Fourth of July weekend by cracking down on Driving Under the Influence of alcohol and marijuana violations.

Citizens of Colorado should be aware that July 4, 2015, is within the time frame of Checkpoint Colorado, a new program in which local police departments will increase DUI checkpoints. In addition, law enforcement agencies will intensify the number of DUI patrols and enforcement strategies over the entire weekend of the Fourth.

According to Colorado criminal defense attorney, Craig Skinner, such efforts are commonplace this time of year due to a significant increase of related violations. Craig Skinner’s law firm, which specializes in Colorado DUI and DWAI cases, receives an increase in calls from people charged with drunk driving throughout the summer and Fourth of July weekend.
