You Don't Need Me To Tell You That DWI Continues To Be A Big Problem In East Texas And Here's Another Way It Can Effect Us All.

The Coffee City Police Department was pretty busy on Tuesday (Oct. 12) as officers there arrested 4 men during what they described as "routine traffic stops" in the city.

When you have folks like THIS GUY with FIVE previous convictions still on the streets causing ruckus and damage, its time to take a new look on how DUI's are handled.

Drinking and driving are still a problem across East Texas.

His "other seven DWI charges have stemmed from speeding, going the wrong way down a one-way street, and driving through neighborhood yards."

It's 2022, you would think that people would learn by now that drinking and driving just don't mix.

Sunday morning an off-duty Nacogdoches police officer was arrested with Blood Alcohol Contents of .138 and .144.

This is the kind of thing that makes me not want to get on the roads...ever.

It sure would be a lot more fun to spend $20,000 on a car than it would be to spend that same amount on fines and legal costs after driving drunk in one. That's the real cost of a DWI in Texas, and it serves as a warning heading into a weekend full of holiday parties.

Actor Lou Diamond Phillips, known for his role in the movie 'La Bamba' and TV show 'Longmire,' was arrested on a DWI charge in Portland, Texas early Friday morning.
