A Fourth of July fireworks display at the Washington Monument.The Fourth of July Holiday ‘Avoid the 38’ DUI Campaign period has ended with the deployment of a Sobriety Checkpoint, special DUI Saturation Patrols and officers on routine patrol focused on impaired drivers to lower deaths/injuries on streets and highways in Orange County.
For the 48 hour effort from 12:01 AM Tuesday, July 3, 2012 through Midnight Wednesday, July 4, 2012, officers representing 38 county law enforcement agencies arrested 78 individuals for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. In 2011, 107 DUI arrests occurred during the final 2 days of the July 4th state holiday. There were no DUI fatalities reported.
As others have reported, looks like DUI arrests are plummeting. If you have questions for our Orange County DUI Lawyers, call me at (877) 568-2977.
