Well duh. Everyone knew about it..
Please share with us how EVERYONE knew.
Seems like a successful waste of resources!
I think they are looking for someone who doesn’t know.
Such a waist of every body’s time and money. They would be better off out looking for crimes not sitting on their rears waiting for it to come to them!!
Over 50 people were seriously injured or killed by a drug or alcohol impaired driver in Santa Clarita last year. I doubt they or their families would agree that it’s a waste. Meanwhile, Santa Clarita’s crime rate is less than half that of the average for the entire nation.
Whether they cited anyone for DUI, lives were saved after being forewarned! Well done. Lives were likely spared.?????
Checkpoints are highly visible, highly publicized events meant to deter drinking and driving in the first place. Checkpoints have been shown to have the potential to lower DUI fatality rates by up to 20 percent by virtue of their deterrence. People go through them, drive past them, hear about them via multiple grapevines and get the ongoing impression that drunk driving is dangerous, socially unacceptable, and that law enforcement is actively looking for it.
Patrols are meant to catch active drunks, get them off the streets and prosecute them. Patrols have little deterrent value, but high enforcement value. They are both good tactics and both should be in the arsenal of DUI combating tactics, along with others. In terms of catching drunks, nothing beats patrols. In terms of saving lives, nothing beats checkpoints.
