Haverhill, Mass., Woman Accused Of Wrong-Way Drunken Driving On Interstate 93 In Salem

SALEM, NH — A woman from Massachusetts was arrested Thursday morning, accused of wrong-way drunken driving on Interstate 93.

Around 2:15 a.m., state police received a report about a driver in a car traveling north in the southbound lanes. Troop B troopers were able to stop the car near the Exit 1 offramp. They spoke to the driver, Vanessa Dubey, 26, of Haverhill, MA, who was accused of telling them she was “following her GPS,” Amber Lagace, the public information officer for the New Hampshire State Police, said.

“The area that Dubey entered the interstate is unknown as troopers were able to intercept this vehicle before any reports to 911 were made,” she said.

Dubey was arrested and charged with reckless conduct, aggravated DWI, and reckless operation. She will be arraigned in Salem District Court at a future date.

Anyone who may have witnessed this incident or has additional details was asked to contact Trooper Olmstead at 603-223-4381 or Benjamin.M.Olmstead@dos.nh.gov.
