St. Patrick’s has DUI Arrests Higher Than Most Holidays

The screenshot above shows just a slight fraction of the all the major holidays, and the DUI arrests that come along with them. This chart was made by the Ohio State Highway Patrol to show the OVI(operating a vehicle impaired) arrests from 2023. That year, Saint Patrick’s Day ranked fourth in the number of these cases of any holiday. Then, last year, the number of people caught driving drunk or high on St. Patrick’s Day spiked up even more.

This shows what all can happy in one day when people drive impaired. St. Patricks Day was the only single day holiday and showed a great amount of crashes. Days like these remind us the great impact driving has on our society. If you have recently needed help from a driving school A-1 Driving Schools is here to help!
