Traffic flowing through the checkpoint will be contacted by uniformed officers, who will be checking for alcohol- and/or drug-impaired drivers. Officers will also check to make sure all drivers have a valid driver’s license.

The purpose of the checkpoint is to promote public safety, increase awareness of the dangers associated with drinking and driving, and serves as a deterrent to potential impaired or unlicensed drivers.

Funding for this program was provided by a grant from the Avoid the 21 Program.

Please direct any inquiry to Sergeant Nick Corti at (510) 577-3226.
