Yolo County’s “Avoid the 8″ DUI task force will deploy extra patrols countywide and conduct two sobriety checkpoints in an effort to crack down on impaired drivers during the Memorial Day weekend.
Sobriety and driver’s-license checkpoints are planned for Friday night near the intersection of Grant and Main streets in Winters, and on Saturday night in West Sacramento at a location not yet announced.
Saturation patrols will be deployed in Davis, Woodland, Winters, West Sacramento and unincorporated Yolo County. The enforcement period begins at 6 p.m. Friday and extends through midnight Monday.
