The North Idaho DUI Task Force will hit the region's streets and waterways to stop impaired drivers — but before making any arrests, police hope to prevent them. 

Last July, 16 people died in impaired driving crashes across the state, including two in North Idaho, according to the Idaho Transportation Department. There were 171 impaired driving crashes during the same period. Local and state law enforcement will carry out enhanced patrols on highways and back roads from July 1 through July 8. 

Between July 4 and 6, area law enforcement agencies will also deploy marine patrols across North Idaho’s waterways to target impaired boaters.
