On 03/14/2025 between the hours of 8pm and 2am, the Golden Police Department Special Operations Unit will be conducting a DUI saturation event within the city. As we approach Saint Patrick’s Day weekend, the Golden Police Department wants to take this opportunity to remind residents and the motoring public of the risk and potential impacts of driving under the influence. In 2024 the State of Colorado saw 203 deaths on the roadway involving impaired drivers, accounting for 30% of all traffic fatalities for the year. This saturation event is the first of several that will be carried out by Golden’s Special Operations Unit in 2025.
