This week’s poll focuses on exploring the best ways to handle high-risk DUI offenders. As detailed in our recent story, the Target Zero DUI Treatment Court is one of the intensive therapy programs designed to address the root causes of dangerous driving behaviors. However, there are other methods to consider, such as increased jail time and fines or mandatory ignition interlock devices to prevent repeat offenses. Some believe that a combination of therapy and traditional penalties might be the most effective solution. We want to hear your thoughts—cast your vote and let us know what you think could best reduce DUI incidents and make our roads safer!
