A first-time DUI conviction can result in an average of $13,500 in fines and penalties, as well as a driver’s license suspension, police said.
Police also said some prescription and over-the-counter medications can impair a person’s ability to drive. Although recreational and medicinal marijuana are legal in California, driving under the influence of marijuana remains illegal.
The checkpoint is funded by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
