Heads up: Irvine Police will be conducting a DUI checkpoint tonight (that’s July 12) in the area of Culver Drive and Irvine Boulevard. The checkpoint will be in effect from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m.
“The checkpoint will be clearly marked and vehicles will be selected for further screening on a pre-set basis to ensure objectivity,” states a July 11 news release from the Irvine PD. “Motorists will be greeted and given information about the dangers of driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol. Trained officers will direct suspected impaired drivers to a secondary area for further evaluation. Most motorists will experience little or no delay.”
Funding for the checkpoint is provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety.

Irvine, where all the shithole rat face Republicans live. Always killing innocent people while drunk driving.
