I was driving down the road and about a block south of the only bar in town I saw six police cars on the side of the road pointing south. After passing the bar I saw six more police cars on the side of the road pointing north. I guess the county jail is going to be full tonight [:D]

Twelve cop cars in a town so small it only has one bar? Kind of overkill IMHO.
It's not a small town, it's Utah county, Utah. Home of BYU that is a private college owned by the LDS church. As liquor licenses become available the LDS church buys them up so people can't open new bars when one closes. This bar is been around since the 50s. The LDS church has the liquor laws sewn up so tight that if a proprietor of the bar passes on, the liquor licenses are not transferable to the next of kin. even if he has A Will that shows that his next of kin will retain them
the county has about 560,000 people in It. With just three bars spread out over a 40 mile radius
Orem, where this bar is has over 100,000 people that live here
There's something going on,,,
Yep, driving under the influence is a huge no-no around here. After you get one, you're no longer eligible for a CCW permit for life, we have a zero tolerance law which means if you have a DUI and if a breathalyzer test registers any alcohol, even if you blow .000001 for the next 10 years it's an automatic DUI

Public Safety. It's all about public safety.
Winner winner, chicken dinner and I approve of what Utah is doing.

Denying citizens the right to choose how to make a living is un-American and I now think less of the mormons for their choice of tactics.
I believe the law enforcement code word - radio / report acronym you are looking for is "U.N.I.T."
Mike
No Mike, I wasn't looking for the law enforcement code word or police acronym of U.N.I.T.. I used the right words "police car"
I would've used Vics, short for crown Victoria's, but they also had some cop chargers there [:D]
Unit
Unwanted N-word in town
Not my code word...
And there is getting pulled over for DWB
Driving while black
Again I am not the progenitor of these acronyms.
Mike
Nope, they were looking for drunk drivers not African-Americans. It's highly doubtful that you would find an African-American in a bar around here, not that we don't have African-Americans in town, there is a small handful of them. Just that I'm sure they're smart enough not to go into a predominately white bar.
By the way, you say you are not a progenitor of those acronyms, but you're the only one using them around here in this thread. So your actions speaks different than your words speak

That means do not take any cough syrup.
I had a DUI and Utah issued me a non resident carry permit with no problem and yes, I informed the Utah Department of Public Safety of the fact when I submitted my application. When I renewed my permit I again told them about the DUI on my record and again was issued my permit..
After reading your response, I googled the CFP laws in Utah, and it seems Utah has dropped it from a lifetime hold to a five-year period without any alcohol related charges hold
Thank you for letting me know this, it's good to know in case I know anybody that wants a CFP in Utah that has at the DUI
