Don't know. Do you know?
The 1,000 arrests goal, was that higher or lower than the preceding year? By what percent was it different? Did the 900+ arrests meet, fail to meet or did they exceed the preceding year's arrests?

Yes, when zero violations occurred after the same efforts of previous years, that would be success.

Maybe. Could also mean the location and or timing was wrong. But, yes, if the number of impaired drivers decreased, that is good.
