Advisory: The Santa Ana Police Department will be conducting a DUI/Drivers License checkpoint April 13th, 2012.
SANTA ANA POLICE STEP UP DUI ENFORCEMENT
The Santa Ana Police Department will be conducting a DUI/Drivers License checkpoint on Friday, April 13th, 2012. It will begin at 7:30PM and is scheduled to conclude at 1:30AM. It will be conducted in the area of 2300 W. 5th Street, in the City of Santa Ana. In the event of heavy rain, the checkpoint will be suspended and officers will be deployed in a saturation patrol format.
In an effort to reduce the number of persons killed and injured in alcohol involved crashes, DUI checkpoints are conducted to identify offenders and get them off the street, as well as educate the public on the dangers of impaired driving. All too often, members of our community are senselessly injured or killed on local roadways by impaired drivers. This DUI/Drivers License checkpoint is an effort to reduce those tragedies, as well as ensuring drivers have a valid driver’s license. A major component of these checkpoints is to increase awareness of the dangers of impaired driving and to encourage sober designated drivers.
A DUI checkpoint is a proven effective method for achieving this goal. By publicizing these enforcement and education efforts, the Santa Ana Police Department believes motorists can be deterred from drinking and driving.
Traffic volume and weather permitting, all vehicles may be checked and drivers who are under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs will be arrested. Our objective is to send a clear message to those who are considering driving a motor vehicle after consuming alcohol and/or drugs – Drunk Driving, Over the Limit, Under Arrest. The public is encouraged to help keep roadways safe by calling 911 if they see a suspected impaired driver. Funding for this operation is provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
Whew.
Good news: we are house sitting in Irvine. So no corrupt SA Cops chaing me just because I drink too much.
I drained the liquor cabinet aleady. Luckily, my wife is used to taking the bus to clean the house here, so generous are her employer, they left food from the Farmers Market from last month for us!
I tried Lampost, but they wouldn’t give a tab………
VACATIONS OVER
CWG,
If you see someone peeking thru the windows don’t be alarmed. It’s just your pal the Northwood Night Stalker making his rounds. Doesn’t your wife clean his house too?
