Patrol patterns need to vary depending on the circumstances. New Years Eve is a big night for parties. People like to drink alcoholic beverages at New Years Eve parties. People who drink alcoholic beverages often do not drive well. This is a good time to patrol areas near parties.
Rather than drive around in a housing tract looking for parties, drive around the perimeter of housing tracts waiting for cars to exit. Don't drive inside the tract looking for parties because you might inflame party goers and precipitate an incident. By driving the perimeter you can watch for people who are exhibiting signs of poor driving.
Patrol those areas where kids may go to drink alcohol. School grounds after hours, video game stores, tattoo parlours, parks, and empty homes and buildings. Kids using alcohol is particularly dangerous, they often have no idea of their limits and often don't drive well in normal conditions. Watch the parties, that's what the SGT Says.
