The Washington State Patrol will be out in force this Friday, November 25, 2016, looking for Impaired Drivers during its Black Friday DUI Emphasis patrol.

WSP is deploying their mobile police station - the Mobile Impaired Driving Unit (MIDU) so suspect drivers can be processed on the scene.

The MIDU is a self-contained 36 foot motorhome that has been retrofitted as a mobile DUI processing center and incident command post.

The MIDU is equipped with three breath testing instruments, two temporary holding cells, three computer work stations, an incident command computer terminal, a dispatcher console with wireless access to WSP dispatch centers and a microwave downlink tower for real time broadcasts from WSP aircraft.

This is a full service police station on wheels.
