Students at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse have purchased a $55 breathalyzer in order to allow fellow students to use it before getting into a vehicle to drive home.

Students have made posters and carried them around downtown in order to promote the free BAC tests that they offer. If people ignore the sign, the two students have asked people who are about to get behind the wheel of a car to use it.

These students are trying their hardest to save their fellow students from a DUI citation and keep them and others on the road safe. The two students that have started the efforts both lost friends to drinking and driving and do not want anyone else to have to go through that.

Fox Valley Technical College's Criminal Justice Division recently received a new state of the art crime-fighting technology that they hope will reduce crime on campus and throughout Northeast Wisconsin.

The technology, called Leica Geosystems Scanstation C10, uses 3D mapping that lets police officers take pictures and measurements, and then put them in the computer to re-create a crime scene.  

Law enforcement officers that have used the technology believe that it could be used in court to help jurors understand the crime scene, threat assessment, shootings, and car accidents.
