Iowa Law Officers Keep Sharper Eye Out For Drunk Drivers During Prom Season

Statewide Iowa — It’s prom season for Iowa high school students, and law enforcement officers across the state are working to keep a closer eye out for young drivers who may be impaired.

Iowa State Patrol public resource officer Paul Gardner has some advice for teens who are planning for the big night.

Gardner says the group Mothers Against Drunk Driving has compiled some figures about the dangers.

Having just one drink, or even part of a drink, may land a teen driver in deep legal trouble.

A recent national survey found the average high schooler will spend between 900 and a-thousand dollars on prom.
