Erie County Sheriff’s Deputy Simon Biegasiewicz was honored New York State STOP-DWI and Mothers Against Drunk Drivers with their Recognition Award at their annual luncheon on Wednesday.
Deputy Biegasiewicz was nominated by Erie County STOP-DWI Coordinator John Sullivan for his efforts to remove impaired drivers from area roadways. Deputy Biegasiewicz is a Drug Recognition Expert and is dispatched to many incidents involving impaired drivers because he is trained to recognize the signs of impairment from alcohol and drugs.
ECSO says that Biegasiewicz’ training has lead to the arrest of numerous impaired drivers throughout Erie County.
