Presents the 23rd Annual DUI Top Gun Awards
This year the Pennsylvania DUI Association will be celebrating the 23rd Anniversary of the DUI Top Gun Awards. It is with great honor that officers around the Commonwealth have been recognized for their extraordinary efforts in removing impaired drivers from our roadways.

Our society expects a great deal from our law enforcement officers.  We ask them to be a counselor, teacher, medical technician, social worker, psychologist, mentor, negotiator, and then we expect them to enforce the laws.  The removal of offenders who drive under the influence is an integral part of the solution in the elimination of impaired drivers and the harm they can cause.  Law enforcement officers in Pennsylvania deserve a thank you for their work in reducing the threat of impaired drivers on our roads. 

Below you will find the information for the 2020 DUI Top Gun Awards.  If you believe an individual in your Department has made an outstanding contribution in the area of DUI enforcement please submit a nomination on their behalf by September 11, 2020.
