How many DUI arrests could a patrol officer make from 2007 till May 2013?

How many DUI arrests could a patrol officer make from 2007 till May 2013?

Lets call it six years. What is a realistic number? I heard a patrol officer estimate how many DUI arrests he made, I just want a patrol officer to respond with an estimate and see if it comes close to this other officer's estimate of his own record. The trial is over and a verdict was reached so no impropriety here. Just wondering.

Update:

Alameda County California. (Oakland and burbs)

    If they work the night shift and try pretty hard say 200 a year. So over 6 years 1,200. Some agencies have designated DUI officers. So any officer that finds a drunk calls the designated DUI officer to perform the arrest. So those designated DUI officers could do much more, since they basically arrest drunks back to back all night long.

    There is no way anyone can guess that kind of number. The number would vary depending on where the police patrol and what days he or she is working. If a patrol officer is working a small town, it would stand to reason he or she won't make as many DUI arrest as someone who is a big city cop.
