Treed

The Nevada Highway Patrol put up its first “DUI Tree” years ago. You can find it at NHP’s Reno headquarters, 357 Hammill Lane. How it works is that officers hang a paper ornament on the tree for every DUI arrest they make between Thanksgiving and Christmas. The tree doesn’t celebrate arrests. It’s meant to serve as a reminder of each crash and fatality that may have been avoided when a drunken driver was removed the road.
