After wandering across both directions of I-40 on foot and into the eastbound facility of the Topock Port of Entry this past spring, an impaired commercial driver was taken into custody by an ADOT Enforcement and Compliance officer thanks to DUI training. ADOT officials say the training is funded through a grant from the Governor’s Office of Highway Safety, and consists of common indicators of someone under the influence, conducting standard field sobriety tests, guidance on DUI investigations and obtaining e-warrants. Training classes are held throughout the year at different locations around the state. Refresher courses are also held for officers who have already completed training.
