Reported Checkpoint Details
The Yucaipa Police Department is scheduled to conduct DUI enforcement operations on November 6, 2026, as part of its efforts to address impaired driving and improve traffic safety. Deputy Tormey reminds motorists that driving under the influence is a preventable risk and encourages everyone to make responsible transportation arrangements before going out. Alcohol is not the only concern; prescription medications, over-the-counter drugs, and marijuana can also affect reaction time, judgment, and the ability to operate a vehicle safely. Drivers should read medication warnings and avoid getting behind the wheel whenever a substance may cause impairment. If you plan to drink, arrange a designated driver, book an Uber or Lyft, or ask a sober friend for a ride. A first-time DUI charge can carry an average of $13,500 in fines and penalties, along with a suspended driver's license. Making a responsible choice before your journey can help protect you, your passengers, and everyone else on the road. DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE — PLAN A SOBER RIDE.
