The San Diego Police Department announced that a DUI and drivers license checkpoint will be set up at an undisclosed location beginning at 11 p.m. Thursday night.
The department regularly announces overnight checkpoints without revealing the location in an effort to deter drunk driving.
As in the past, the location will be chosen based on collision and arrest statistics. The checkpoint will be active until 3 a.m. on Friday morning.
Officers will be looking for signs of alcohol and/or drug impairment with and also checking drivers for proper licensing, delaying motorists only momentarily.
Funding for the checkpoint is provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
