DUI checkpoint set for El Cerrito yahoo.com


MARTINEZ — A California DUI drunken-driving checkpoint will be conducted in El Cerrito during the Labor Day weekend, California DUI lawyers and the Contra Costa County Sheriff's Office said.

As part of the county's Avoid the 25 campaign — named after the number of California DUI law enforcement agencies in Contra Costa — patrols will be bolstered this weekend to seek out California DUI drunken drivers, California DUI attorneys and the sheriff's office said.

The El Cerrito Police Department will set up a California DUI checkpoint from 7 p.m. Friday to 3 a.m. Saturday, checking motorists for signs of intoxication.

Last year, the holiday weekend netted 65 California DUI arrests and also saw two California DUI -related traffic fatalities, according to California DUI lawyers and the sheriff's office.

Additionally, the sheriff's marine unit will increase California DUI patrols in the Delta, as water safety awareness in the area was heightened after two recent fatalities involving personal watercraft near Discovery Bay.
