locations, or not announcing them at all. Check back to
this site later on, as alert motorists usually
text us with the
exact locations. Text us at 714.390.5190

Here's most all the Speed
Traps in the U.S. listed by city
www.speedtrap.org
The
new law
AB353 removed much of the $$ incentive for the PD's to do
Checkpoints in California, and went into effect 1/1/12. We
are watching out
there
for
you.
New
Checkpoint Laws --
AB353
was signed into law 10/8/11. This means that drivers without
valid licenses who are stopped at DUI Checkpoints in California will no
longer
automatically have their cars impounded - the PD's now have to make a
reasonable attempt to find the owner and notifiy them. And if
the
owner can pay the fines etc. they can get the car back without a 30 day
automatic impound. This also means that a major part of the $$
incentive for the cities and the PD's to hold these Checkpoints has been
removed. Click Here for a post-passage
article and some background on the new California law's effect.
AB1389 was
vetoed by Jerry Brown, Governer of California. This would
have made it mandatory to
give
48 hour notice of Checkpoints, and make it so that Checkpoints would be
setup to look for
Drinking Drivers only. The Police Chiefs in CA convinced Gov.
Brown to veto this Bill.
So it's business as usual, except that the $$ incentive to hold a lot
of these California Checkpoints has been removed. We'll see
if that cuts
the
frequency back. Click Here for an article a Street
Reporter wrote on the subject.

Checkpoint
Background Information
Here's most all the Speed
Traps in the U.S. listed by city www.speedtrap.org
Have you been nabbed by a Red Light camera in California? Check out www.highwayrobbery.net to get information on how to fight snapshot-camera tickets. 12
States
either prohibit or do not allow DUI
Checkpoints. A 1990 U.S. Supreme Court case ruled that they
are legal,
but Checkpoints infringe on our civil liberties, are an ineffective way
of
catching drunken drivers and should be done away with. Random PD Patrols are far
more effective and less
costly, but are not as sensational as all those flashy Checkpoints. And DUI Checkpoints gather
overtime for the cops, and
reimbursement from Uncle Sugar or Uncle Jerry.
MADD
honored a Costa Mesa, California Police
Officer who popped 432 (!!) Drunk Drivers in 2011. Click Here for the Daily Pilot
article.
Almost all those Smartphone
Aps that say they track the DUI Checkpoints
are totally worthless. Sometimes they list info that is
texted in
by drivers, but none of them monitor the news sources ahead of time
like we do. Plus we also put up listings right away when
unannounced CP's are discovered by alert motorists out there at night.
Flash:
Blackberry
and now Apple have dropped all DUI location Apps from Cellphone use,
under pressure from the U.S. Congress. Click Here for the USA
Today article.
People ask why we don't
publish this
earlier for the weekend, and it's because 1) the PD's
sometimes
don't put out info until the last minute and 2) there are some
copycat sites (mostly attorneys, ehhh) who know that we have the most
and best Orange County info, so they copy the listings when we put them
up.
Dirty.....
The PD's are supposed to announce
Checkpoints in advance, but we have
found that sometimes they use small publications, so very few people
know. And sometimes they don't announce them at all, figuring
that drivers caught are not likely to contest the charges.
Be
careful out there.
Some thoughts on why and how DUI Checkpoints exist,
and how they seem to target ethnic groups.
Click Here for
the 3/28/11 article
from the Orange County Register
Here's an article on AB1389, which would dramatically change the way
California Police must conduct Checkpoints. They are doing
DUI
checkpoints now at 10am, noontime, whenever.... just to catch and
impound cars for the $$$. Click

Santa Ana urged to stop impounding cars Click Here for the OC Register
article.
OC cities really do impound a lot of cars vs. DUI's -- Click Here for the article
One of the local DUI attorneys tries to charge for alerts you can get
here for free. And Apple and others are being pushed to
prevent
the Apps from working. Censorship? Click Here for
the article
from the Orange County Register
In LA the PD has revised it's policy regarding non-DUI related
offenders snared at Checkpoints. Cutting way back on
impounding
cars,,,, it's a start. Click Here for the article from
the Los Angeles Times
This is guaranteed to make you wonder how these Checkpoints can
continute to operate, in clear violation of the law. Click Here for a News Video from
PBS suggesting that the impounding of cars is illegal and
unconstitutional.
Here's
some fresh info about what to expect
re: OC DUI Checkpoints in 2010-11:
The State of
California is set to expand DUI Checkpoints
in 2010 - a 50% increase over 2009. California may have the
largest Checkpoint
Program in the country this year, with an extra $8M in
funding.

Lotsa Saturation Patrols
out there this 4th Holiday - those are more effective than Checkpoints,
and also don't screw up the traffic. OCSD says they will have
extra patrols in Brea,
Buena Park, Fullerton, Irvine, La Palma, Orange, Placentia, Seal Beach,
Westminster as well as on the campus of California State University,
Fullerton.
"With Independence Day
falling on a Wednesday, many in our community
will be taking the rest of the week off and so DUI Checkpoints and
Saturation Patrols will be out in force throughout the weekend in
Orange County".

Saturation
Patrols are specially trained two man Police teams
that cruise the city specifically to locate and arrest intoxicated
drivers. Typically there are several teams out at the same time.
Quote from the Newport
Beach PD: "The major value of checkpoints is
their educational and deterrent influence on the motoring public,"
Interesting
article, from the Orange County Register;
DUI
checkpoints of dubious value, legality
http://www.ocregister.com/ocregister/opinion/abox/article_1393748.php
Mothers Against Drunk Driving
(MADD) estimates that communities that consistently use sobriety
checkpoints experience as much as 8 times the reduction in DUI
incidence as communities that use roving patrols alone.
