Reported Checkpoint Details
The Menifee Police Department has announced a DUI and driver's license checkpoint for November 7, 2026, from 7 p.m. to 1 a.m. at an undisclosed location within Menifee city limits. According to the department, checkpoint locations are selected based on DUI-related crashes and arrests, with the primary goal of promoting public safety by discouraging impaired driving rather than focusing solely on making arrests. During the operation, officers will look for signs of impairment associated with alcohol or drugs. The department also conducts targeted DUI patrols throughout the year to identify drivers suspected of operating vehicles while impaired. Motorists are encouraged to plan ahead, arrange for a designated driver, use Uber or Lyft, or choose another safe transportation option if they have been drinking or using substances that may affect their driving ability. DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE.
