APD Announces Year-Round No Refusal Initiative
The Austin Police Department is extending the DWI No Refusal Initiative to be year-round. The enforcement initiative will be in effect between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m., Monday through Sunday, throughout the entirety of the year.

This initiative is an effort to enforce DWI laws, keep the public safe by encouraging drivers to make responsible decisions, and apply for blood search warrants on suspects who refuse to provide a breath or blood specimen, as required by law. This initiative will also focus on highways and high-speed roadways.

The Austin Police Department, along with the City of Austin Transportation and Public Works Department, continues to focus on preventing lives from being lost on Austin’s streets, highways, and waterways. We are dedicated to making the roadways and waterways of Austin safe for residents and visitors through education and enforcement.

Don’t drink and drive.
