Authorities have stopped more than 32,000 drivers and issued more than 9,500 citations for driving offenses besides DUI.
Under a new state law, DUI offenders face a minimum 10-day jail term, fines and license suspensions and must install an ignition-interlock device in their vehicles.
The task force continues through New Year's Day.
