Note: I received the following DUI Checkpoint press release from law enforcement. I present it here for your information:

On Friday evenings 08/21/2009 and 08-28-2009, the San Marcos Sheriff’s Traffic Division, with cooperation from the North County Law Enforcement Traffic Safety Council, will conduct Driving Under the Influence checkpoints at undisclosed locations in the City of San Marcos.

These details are part of the on-going effort by the California Office of Traffic Safety, the City of San Marcos and the Sheriff’s Traffic Division to reduce the number of drunken driving traffic collisions and related incidents during the busy summer months. The checkpoint will be staffed by San Marcos deputies, senior volunteers, and representatives of the North County Law Enforcement Traffic Safety Council.

MISSION: The purpose of the operation is to raise awareness, identify and arrest drunk drivers, and allow for a safer driving environment within the City of San Marcos. There will also be enforcement of other California Vehicle Codes relating to seat belt violations along with any other alcohol related or law violations.
