MADD Pushes for Tougher Wisconin DUI Penalties

11 03.10

The national president of Mothers Against Drunk Driving wants Wisconsin lawmakers to toughen drunken driving penalties in the state.

MADD’s president wants lawmakers to hold a hearing on a bill that would legalize sobriety checkpoints and make a first-offense drunken driving arrest a crime instead of just a traffic violation.

Democratic State Senator Mark Miller of Monona says it doesn’t make sense to move ahead with the costly bill. He says the state should wait to look at another proposal to toughen drunken penalties until a bill passed last year takes effect.
