Fairfield DUI Checkpoint Set For Friday Night

FAIRFIELD - Fairfield Police have announced they will be conducting a DUI/Drivers License Checkpoint this Friday, April 22 between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 12:00 a.m.

The location is unannounced.

Officers say they will be looking for signs of alcohol and/or drug impairment, and checking drivers for proper licensing.

For those who want to drink, police recommend the California Office of Traffic Safety DDVIP (Designated Driver VIP) mobile app, available for free download on iOS and Android devices.

The app allows users to “Map a Spot” with their current location to find DDVIP partnering establishments in their area or a “List of Spots” to search all participating bars and restaurants throughout California, according to officials.

Through the app, users can also order a sober ride on a single screen from Uber, Lyft or Curb.
