Police said one driver was arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance and 14 traffic citations were issued for violations of the Pennsylvania Motor Vehicle Code.
Twenty-one drivers were issued warnings for violations, police said.
They said that two motorists were interviewed but were released after passing standardized field sobriety tests.
