Our Orange County DUI Lawyers have learned that the Costa Mesa Police will be stopping cars at Bristol Street and Randolph Avenue from 6 to 11 p.m. Tuesday to check drivers’ licenses and look for drunk drivers.
Advance publicity of the DUI checkpoints is one of the criteria California courts use in determining the legality of a checkpoint if it ends up being challenged.
The high courts have not ruled on the legality of stopping cars to check for drivers’ licenses, but have upheld DUI checkpoints for two decades, even if they are not as effective as DUI roving patrols, our Newport Beach DUI Lawyers think.
