State police and the Department of Transportation are continuing efforts to crack down on reckless, impaired and wrong-way driving after another weekend of crashes and arrests.

From Essex to East Hartford, state officials say the state is lucky more people weren’t killed because of bad decisions.

The southern end of Route 9 was the scene of the latest wrong-way driving incident over the weekend.

According to state police, Jaclyn Jerome of Glastonbury was arrested for DUI and other related charges after she was driving south on the northbound side of Route 9 starting in Essex before getting stopped before she merged onto Interstate 95.

She is seen in dash cam video released by state police getting stopped by a trooper, after she attempts to turn around before she merged onto I-95.

“It’s a blessing honestly anytime there is a wrong-way driver it’s a blessing no one was injured,” Trooper Remonda Zhuta said.

State police said this was the 13th arrest of the year for DUIs where a wrong-way driving charge has been added.
