Q: What is the law regarding turning around and avoiding drunken driving checkpoints? I understand that drivers don’t have to go through the checkpoints, but local police will pull them over, even though no crime has been committed. Can you comment on this? You are correct in that as a driver of a motor vehicle, you are not required to proceed through a designated Driving Under the Influence/driver’s license …

In San Clemente, CA you have ONLY 10 DAYS after being charged or arrested with Driving Under the Influence to request a department of motor vehicle (DMV) hearing to avoid losing your driving license or other driving privileges. Contact Attorney Scott R. Cadzow for immediate assistance.
