Serious Penalties for DUI
Law enforcement officers in Omaha, Nebraska, and surrounding areas watch carefully for drivers they suspect have been drinking. They look for a reason to pull over vehicles to investigate their level of intoxication. An arrest or ticket for driving under the influence is serious - penalties include the possibility of jail time, fines and the loss of your license.
