During Memorial Day Weekend, CHP Will Be on the Lookout for DUI
- The California Highway Patrol initiated an intensive enforcement campaign on Friday evening, continuing through late Monday night, to crack down on DUI offenses and unsafe driving throughout Southern California during the Memorial Day weekend.
- This effort stems from a statewide push to improve road safety during the holiday, following last year's arrests of roughly 1,100 impaired motorists, a number similar to 2023.
- The enforcement includes sobriety checkpoints and saturation patrols in many municipalities and unincorporated areas patrolled by sheriff's deputies, with Los Angeles Police Department conducting nightly DUI operations.
- CHP Commissioner Sean Duryee highlighted the importance of seatbelt use during the campaign, noting that wearing a seatbelt is a simple yet highly effective method for keeping yourself safe. He also encouraged drivers to make responsible decisions and ensure they have a safe way to get home.
- The 2024 enforcement period saw 42 collision fatalities, four fewer than in 2023, indicating a possible safety improvement while underscoring the CHP's daily priority to keep the public safe.
