Community: 177 DUI arrests by L.A. County policing agencies Sun-Mon. Avoid 100 Policing Agencies

Hi Pepperdine Libboard,

SUPER BOWL DUI CRACKDOWN – RESULTS

The Super Bowl DUI Mobilization crackdown on drinking drivers resulted in a significant number of DUI arrests from the sobriety checkpoints, special saturation patrols and routine patrols in Los Angeles County yesterday. From 12:01 AM Sunday, February 2 to 12:00 AM Monday, February 3, officers representing 100 county law enforcement agencies arrested 177 individuals for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Nine of these arrests were a result of a DUI crash causing great bodily injury to another person. (Note: These results are preliminary with some agencies yet to report.)

Law enforcement officials will be conducting more “Avoid the 100” DUI operations during St Patrick’s Day, Cinco de Mayo and the Memorial Day weekend holiday. Police, Sheriff and the CHP encourage motorists to help law enforcement every day: Report Drunk Drivers – Call 9-1-1 anytime you encounter an impaired driver.

DUI checkpoints, along with regularly scheduled high visibility DUI enforcement operations, are proven strategies for removing impaired drivers from the road and heightening awareness of the dangers of driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, sobriety checkpoint programs can yield considerable cost savings: $6 for every $1 spent.
Funding for this program was provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Advisory: Fans Don't Let Fans Drive Drunk. DUI Checkpoints & Patrols Are Out Saving Lives - Super Bowl 48 Avoid the 100

Hi Pepperdine Libboard,

Avoid the 100 DUI Task Force Deploying Saturation Patrols Super Bowl Sunday (Avoid 100 policing agencies)

* If you've had a few drinks or more, call a taxi. Please.

* Never let friends drive if they have had too much to drink.

* Take the keys away from anyone who has had too much to drink

A DUI arrest is expensive and embarrassing. Yet it is even worse to cause a DUI collision and hurt or kill an innocent person.

The Super Bowl is one of America’s most highly anticipated sporting events gathering friends and family in homes, bars and restaurants to celebrate. The National Football League (NFL), the California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS), and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) have joined forces with the Los Angeles County Avoid the 100 DUI Task Force (100 policing agencies) to spread the message about designating a sober driver, because – Fans Don’t Let Fans Drive Drunk.

Nationally in 2012, alcohol-impaired-driving crashes took 10,322 lives. Californians witnessed 802 deaths in DUI crashes on their streets and highways. These crashes were 31 percent more likely to occur on weekends than on weekdays.

For football fans, Super Bowl Sunday is one of the best days of the year. Have a great time, but please don’t allow the celebration to result in a drunk driving arrest. Act responsibly, designate a sober driver before the Super Bowl party begins and leave your car keys at home.

The Los Angeles County Avoid the 100 Coalition will be deploying special DUI Saturation Patrols in communities around the county. Every regularly scheduled patrol officer working will be watching for the tell-tale signs of impaired driving before, during and after the game.

Whether watching at a bar or hosting a party, the NFL, the Office of Traffic Safety, NHTSA, and the Los Angeles County Avoid DUI Task Force reminds everyone that Fans Don’t Let Fans Drive Drunk. Before choosing to drink, choose your team’s MVP – a sober designated driver.

The ‘Avoid’ DUI Task Force offers these additional safety tips:

If you’re attending a Super Bowl party or watching the game at a sports bar or restaurant

 Designate your sober driver, or plan another way to get home safely before the party begins

 If you don’t have a designated driver, ask a sober friend for a ride home; call a cab,

friend, or family member to come and get you; or just stay for the night

 Use your community’s sober ride program

 And remember, your seat belt is your best defense against a drunk driver in a crash

If you’re hosting a Super Bowl party

 Make sure all your guests designate a sober driver in advance, or arrange for alternate transportation to ensure they get home safely

 Serve food and include non-alcoholic beverages at the party

 Stop serving alcohol at the end of the third quarter of the game and begin serving coffee and dessert

 Keep the numbers for local cab companies handy, and take the keys away from anyone who has had too much to drink

Never let friends drive if they have had too much to drink.
