Working together, courts, probation, and the DAs office are closing the gap from arrest to supervision for drunk drivers with a previous offense who are arrested for another DUI. Repeat offenders are very often re-arrested soon after a DUI, a cycle of self-destruction driven by alcohol dependence. So instead of allowing repeat offenders who have a new DUI to drive unmonitored in the community for months while they await adjudication of their current offense, officials are requiring them to be monitored for alcohol 24\/7 immediately following&#160;arrest.<\/p>\n<p>The trend isn&#8217;t limited to York County. Lackawanna is reported by WPMT to be another Pennsylvania county that monitors repeat offenders pre-trial for alcohol. And states like North Carolina are passing legislation requiring <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scramsystems.com\/monitoring\/scram-continuous-alcohol-monitoring\/\">Continuous Alcohol Monitoring<\/a> pre-trial for repeat offenders. The tactic is part of a paradigm shift that is focusing resources on the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.centurycouncil.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hardcore Drunk Drivers<\/a>, working to control and address the addiction that is at the root of the criminal&#160;behavior.<\/p>\n<p>According to York County Judge John S. Kennedy, they absolutely believe the tactic is reducing DUIs, since &#8220;very few&#8221; of the people they&#8217;ve monitored have had another&#160;DUI.<\/p>\n<p>Way to Make a Difference, York,&#160;PA!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to officials in York County, Pennsylvania, in any given year, 125 drunk drivers are responsible for 600 DUI arrests.
