10/20/25 - Deputies arrest multiple impaired and reckless drivers over the week The Lane County Sheriff’s Office does not have a dedicated traffic team or deputy assigned to DUI enforcement due to lack of funding. However, our deputies are committed to the safety of our community, and that includes our roadways. Please consider others if you choose to drink or use drugs: 🚙 Plan your safe ride home ahead of time 🍺 If you drink or use drugs, do not drive for any reason 🔑 If you know someone has been drinking or using drugs, don't let them drive 💃 If you host a party with alcohol, make sure all guests leave with a sober driver 👍 And please, always wear your seatbelt! Over the weekend, deputies arrested several drivers for DUII. Each of these cases could have ended tragically, as our deputies often see out on our roads. Please drive safe this fall! On October 13th, deputies responded to a report of a vehicle in the ditch off Marcola Road near Sunderman Road, east of Springfield. The caller reported the driver was attempting to move the vehicle, but was just driving further into the brush.

On October 15th just before midnight, a deputy patrolling Jasper observed a sedan driving 55 miles per hour in the 35 mile-per-hour zone of Jasper Road.
