In June’s campaign, know as Operation Dragonfly, 110 people were arrested for drink and drug-driving related offences with 19 arrested in the final week of the month.

Sussex Police has joined forces with Surrey Police, the Sussex Safer Roads Partnership, Drive Smart in Surrey and the independent charity Crimestoppers to create the campaign which has seen officers release the names of those who have been charged or convicted of drink or drug driving offences.
