Research shows that crashes involving an impaired driver can be reduced by up to 20 percent when well-publicized DUI checkpoints and proactive DUI patrols are conducted routinely.Officers will be looking for signs of alcohol and/or drug impairment by checking drivers for proper licensing, delaying motorists only momentarily. When possible, specially trained officers will be available to evaluate those suspected of drug-impaired driving. Recent statistics reveal that 30 percent of drivers in fatal crashes had one or more drugs in their systems. A study of active drivers showed more tested positive for drugs that may impair driving (14 percent) than did for alcohol (7.3 percent). Of the drugs, marijuana was most prevalent, at 7.4 percent, slightly more than alcohol.Drivers caught driving impaired can expect the impact of a DUI arrest to include jail time, fines, fees, DUI classes, other expenses that can exceed $10,000, not to mention the embarrassment when friends and family find out.Funding for this checkpoint is provided to the San Francisco Police Department by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, reminding everyone to ‘Report Drunk Drivers – Call 9-1-1’.
Arrests:2:43am Ocean & Mission FirearmA vehicle with paper plates, driving erratically, caught the attention of Ingleside Officers Dominguez and George. The officers turned on their overhead lights and activate their siren and pulled the vehicle over at Ocean and Mission. The driver stayed in the car but the front seat passenger tried to exit the vehicle. However, he was prevented by Officer George. A search of the vehicle revealed a quantity of marijuana, a pipe used to smoke narcotics, along with an unregistered firearm. The driver was unlicensed but the car had a valid registration. A computer check of the passenger revealed several arrests on weapons charges and a conviction for assault with a deadly weapon. Two women passengers in the back seat were released at the scene. The driver was issued a citation for driving with a suspended license. The passenger was arrested for being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm and resisting arrest. Report number: 1706607367:10pm San Jose/Mt. Vernon Stolen AutoA woman, who’s older Honda Accord was stolen the previous week in Oakland, spotted her vehicle parked at San Jose and Mt. Vernon. The woman called her sister who traveled to the location, before calling police. Ingleside Officers Cortez and Wells arrived on scene and arrested a man sitting in the passenger seat. He admitted knowing the car was stolen. He also had a quantity of methamphetamine in one of his pockets. The victim requested a tow truck to respond to the scene so the car, which didn’t have seats, a hood, door panels, and other critical parts, could be towed back to their Oakland home. The women said the 21 year old Honda was their daily transportation before being stolen. The suspect was arrested for vehicle theft and possession of narcotics.
