By Hercules Police Department
In order to promote public safety Hercules Police Department is planning on conducting a Sobriety/driver’s license checkpoint on December 29th, 2023 from 8:00PM to 1:00AM
The checkpoint location will be chosen based on the amount of traffic coming into the city, history of DUI related traffic collisions and arrests. The purpose of this checkpoint is to promote awareness by preventing drivers from driving under the influence of alcohol, or drugs and driving without a valid driver’s license.
Just a reminder although medicinal and recreational Marijuana are legal, driving under the influence of Marijuana is illegal
The Hercules Police Department encourages everyone to please order an Uber/Lyft/Taxi or to have a designated driver to help you get home after the holiday festivities. Remember to stay safe and stay sober. Don’t drink and drive and face $13,500 in fines and a suspended driver’s license
Funding for this program was provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
