The Lake Elsinore Sheriff’s Station will be out on December 18 looking for drivers suspected of driving under the influence (DUI).
“Impaired driving is preventable,” Deputy Keyser said. “It’s a choice. If you’ve been drinking or taken drugs that impair, make the right choice by finding a sober driver or alternate transportation to take you places.”
Drivers caught driving impaired and charged with a first-time DUI face an average of $13,500 in fines and penalties, as well as a suspended license.
Funding for distracted driving enforcement is provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
