Sent to our Orange County DUI Lawyers from the Seal Beach Police Department:
The Seal Beach Police Department will be conducting a DUI/Drivers License checkpoint on Saturday, March 13, 2010, from 8pm to 3am on Pacific Coast Highway between Anderson and Seal Beach Blvd. 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 insuring 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 Seal Beach 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, and if you have any questions, contact our Newport Beach DUI Lawyer Robert Miller at (877) 568-2977

The following is a press release sent to our Orange County DUI Lawyers regarding Orange County DUI Checkpoint Locations in Costa Mesa for February, 2010.
Release Date: February 17, 2010
PIO: Lieutenant Bryan Glass
714.754.5603
Sergeant Phil Myers
714.754.5074
Synopsis:
Drunk driving is one of America’s deadliest crimes. In California last year 1,029 people died in crashes
involving a driver or motorcycle rider with a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) of .08 or higher. That is
why the Costa Mesa Police Department announced today they will be holding a DUI/Driver’s License
checkpoint on Friday, February 19 th , from 8:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m., on Baker Street at Bear Street.
“Make no mistake. Our message is simple. No matter what you drive—a passenger car, pickup, sport
utility vehicle or motorcycle—if we catch you driving impaired, we will arrest you. No exceptions. No
excuses,” said Sergeant Makiyama. “We will be talking to drivers, making sure they are not impaired,
arresting those who are, and getting the word out that impaired driving and driving without a proper
license is not acceptable in Costa Mesa.
The Costa Mesa Police Department advises that by following these easy steps, a driver can enjoy a safe
and festive evening without jeopardizing their life and the lives of the others who may be on the road.
Plan a safe way home before the festivities begin;
Before drinking, designate a sober driver and give that person your keys;
If you’re impaired, use a taxi, call a sober friend or family member, or use public
transportation so you are sure to get home safely;
If you happen to see a drunk driver on the road, don’t hesitate to call 911.
Driving impaired is simply not worth the risk. The consequences are serious and real. Not only do you risk
killing yourself or someone else, but the trauma and financial costs of a crash or an arrest for driving while
impaired can be significant. Violators face jail time, the loss of their driver’s license, higher insurance
rates, and dozens of other unanticipated expenses.
Funding for this checkpoint comes from the California Office of Traffic Safety through the National
Highway Transportation Safety Administration.
Supervisor Writing / Approving Release: David Makiyama, Sergeant

The OC Weekly newspaper informs our Orange County DUI lawyers of a DUI checkpoint located in Anaheim.
The Anaheim Police Department Traffic Bureau hosts a DUI Sobriety and Driver’s License checkpoint from 8 p.m. Friday to 3 a.m. Saturday somewhere along Magnolia Avenue–and you’re all invited.
That is, you’re invited if you just happen to be driving along the targeted stretch of road. And you’re really invited if you’re behind the wheel and blowing over the state limit for driving under the influence, or if you forgot your driver’s license, or it’s been suspended, or you don’t have one.
This is the third in a series of six checkpoints scheduled over the next 10 months in Anaheim, and if you’ve been saying to yourself, “Damn, there seems to have been a lot of DUI checkpoints in Orange County lately,” you are right, Rummy!
That because law enforcement agencies have been tapping into funding for these anti-drunk operations provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Use it or lose it, as the bureaucrats like to say.
In addition to the DUI checkpoints, the funding helps departments conduct regular saturation patrols and warrant sweeps aimed at keeping drunken drivers off roads.
