At least 684 people were arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs in San Diego County during the last two weeks of the year, up from 398 in the same period last year.
The arrests were the result of a winter holiday DUI crackdown, which lasted from midnight Dec. 18 through midnight Thursday night. The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department compiled the preliminary data from 17 law enforcement agencies in the county and released the results on Friday.
The department urged the public to call 911 to report DUI suspects.
“When you see a car swerving all over the road, driving much too fast or much too slow, braking for no reason, driving with no headlights at night or signaling one way and turning the other, make that call to 911,” said Sgt. Jason Rothlein.
