  • Even with the ongoing stay-at-home orders, Maryland is seeing another wave of drunken driving. News4's I-Team obtained records that show where these are taking place.
  • The latest series of incidents included at least 32 DUI arrests by state police in Maryland on state highways and the Beltway.
  • Records also show more than a third of the arrests were made in Prince George’s County. One included a driver caught speeding at more than 100 miles per hour by troopers at the Forestville Barrack.
  • Some of these drunk drivers are easy to catch because they are crashing, including one who crashed Monday morning on I-270.
