Illinois Counties pay $100 Reward if Tip results in DUI arrest
San Diego DUI lawyers are appalled:
The Kane County state's attorney says citizens who report drunken drivers to the police can receive a $100 reward if the tip results in a DUI arrest.
The office says the Drunkbusters program starts New Years Eve.
The office started the program along with the Schaumburg-based Alliance Against Intoxicated Motorists and Kane County police agencies.
To receive the $100, witnesses should call 911 with a description of the vehicle, the erratic driving, the location, license plate number and direction of travel.
Drunkbusters also is used in DuPage, Lake, Will and McHenry counties.
