Episode Details

Operation Limit, a World Cup-linked crackdown in Avon and Somerset, stopped 465 drivers and led to 113 arrests for impaired driving—roughly one per four vehicles. Eighty-two were suspected of drug impairment, 31 of alcohol, mostly men aged 25–40. Impaired driving remains a leading cause of fatal crashes; a quarter of last year’s fatal collisions involved drunk or high drivers.

Shockingly, 16 arrested had prior ties to domestic abuse or violence against women, revealing how roadside stops can uncover deeper community dangers.
