#WrongWay driver arrested on suspicion of DUI. Tonight this vehicle was wrong way driving from US95/Casino Center to US95/Jones. The vehicle was NB in the SB lanes. This easily could have been catastrophic, great job by our Troopers to get this vehicle stopped. #drivesober #nhp pic.twitter.com/cBCB0qCj2x
