The Orange County Register had a story about the upcoming DUI Checkpoint in Newport Beach this weekend. Our Orange County DUI Lawyers bring it to you for your weekend planning.
NEWPORT BEACH – Police will stage a sobriety checkpoint from 9 p.m. Friday to 3 a.m. Saturday on northbound Dover Drive at 16th Street, a location bordered by several nightlife hotspots.
Cars passing the checkpoint will be chosen to move through screening lanes on a pre-determined basis designed to ensure the process is objective and random.
Arrests rarely climb into the double digits at checkpoints, which serve more as deterrents. Last month, a checkpoint staged at the entrance to the Balboa Peninsula resulted in six drunken-driving arrests, plus two more detentions for non-DUI-related offenses.
