Reported Checkpoint Details
"Information released by the Turlock Police Department indicates that a DUI/DUID checkpoint is planned for Friday, November 13, 2026, from 8:00 PM to 2:00 AM at an undisclosed location within Turlock city limits.
The department reports that checkpoint locations are selected using traffic safety data, including previous impaired-driving crashes and DUI arrests. These enforcement activities are intended to discourage impaired driving and identify motorists suspected of operating vehicles under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Drivers should also be aware that impairment can result from cannabis, prescription medications, and certain over-the-counter drugs. Anyone consuming substances that may affect driving ability should arrange a sober driver or use alternative transportation.
The announced enforcement program is funded through the CHP Cannabis Tax Fund Grant Program."
