I ran across a report that said in 2010 1.41 million people were arrested for DUIs in the U.S. I would say that it is likely, that given our demographic of mostly retired (lots of free time), Villagers are not heavy contributors toward DUIs in Marion, Lake and Sumter. It just seems like it because you are reading about them (finally).

In fact, our three counties are on a par with most of the rest of Florida with a comparatively low DUI rate of approximately 25/yr per 10,000 population.
