Those convicted of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs or engaging in speed contests or drag races in Westchester County will have to surrender their vehicles under a law that went into effect Wednesday. The law, enacted by the Board of Legislators in October 2009, only applies to convictions stemming from arrests by county police. The implementation is designed to help curb holiday season DWI incidents. The Westchester County website says there has seen a steady increase in DWI or DUI arrests in the past four years.
