WEST COVINA – Police announced a DUI/driver license checkpoint for Friday, August 28 to be held at an undisclosed area.

The checkpoint will be held in an area statistically more prone to collisions and DUI arrests. It will be held from 6 p.m. Friday to 2 a.m. Saturday August 29, according to the West Covina Police Department.

In addition to the checkpoint, additional officers will patrol West Covina streets for the remainder of August and through September.
“While less people are traveling, impaired driving continues to be a problem. During the 4th of July holiday, the CHP made 738 arrests for DUI over a 54-hour period,” the West Covina Police Department said in a written statement.  “Driving while impaired is illegal, whether it is alcohol, prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications or marijuana. If you plan on drinking or taking medications with a “may cause drowsiness” or other driving warning label, plan on staying home.”

Funding for this checkpoint was provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
