Del Mar checkpoint nets 5 arrests
Deputies from the Encinitas Sheriff’s
station conducted a DUI/driver license checkpoint starting
Sept. 3 near Jimmy Durante Boulevard in Del Mar.
The checkpoint, held between 6 and 11 p.m.,
resulted in five arrests and five citations, according to
authorities.
The Sheriff’s Department is placing
30-day holds on vehicles driven by drivers who are
unlicensed or have a suspended license. Drivers with a
suspended license or who are arrested for driving under the
influence can incur legal costs amounting to several thousand
dollars as well as paying for their

stored vehicle, according to the
Sheriff’s Department.
Funding for law enforcement’s
crackdown on drunken driving has provided through a grant from
the California Office of Traffic Safety and the National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
