The numbers are in and deaths over the New Year’s weekend are way down from last year.The Missouri Highway Patrol said four people died in traffic accidents over the 2010 New Year’s holiday weekend compared to 24 last year.

DWI arrests were also down statewide. There were 113 people arrested this weekend for driving while intoxicated which is slightly from 131 the year before.
