The detail results are as follows: Albion PD Agency Break Down<\/strong>: The Albion Police Department and the other Law Enforcement agencies are committed to making the roadways safe for all those who travel upon them. Compared to previous years, this year’s detail had a comparable number of vehicle stops and vehicles traveling through the checkpoint as previous years, but the percentage of intoxicated or impaired drivers has decreased again from previous years. The data from this year’s detail indicates that less than 5% of the motorists stopped were intoxicated and around 2% of a11 encounters were with intoxicated people, whereas in previous years we have seen data as high as 20% of the motorists stopped were intoxicated. This is positive news in our efforts to reduce accidents caused by Intoxicated Drivers. The reduction of DWI Arrests is a positive and motivating factor when these types of details are conducted. Many believe that Law Enforcement want to make more DWI Arrests during these details, however we like to see the opposite. Law Enforcement had interactions with The Albion Police Department and its partners are planning similar details for the future. We will continue to use every resource and tool available to create a reduction in offenders and arrest those who continue to endanger others by driving while intoxicated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Press release On November 26th, 2025, from 7:00pm until 3:00am on November 27th, 2025, the Albion Police Department hosted and supervised a multi-agency Orleans County Wide DWI Saturation Patrol and 2 checkpoint locations.
