Lake Elsinore police arrested five people on suspicion of driving under the influence over the weekend.
The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department formed a special DUI patrol because of the many Cinco de Mayo celebrations going on around town. Police stopped about 70 drivers during this time, arresting five people for driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs, and issuing citations to nine drivers for driving with no license or on a suspended one.
The special patrol was funded from fees collected from drivers previously arrested for DUIs.
If you are arrested for driving under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs, you are facing major consequences. Contact an experienced Riverside Criminal Law attorney immediately to discuss your legal options and rights.

Palm Springs is a fun place for young and old to visit. Palm Springs police officers will ticket you for the following violations: 1) Speeding or driving through a red light will charge you with an infraction. The police officer will issue a Notice to Appear ticket. If you do not show proof of automobile insurance, you will be charged with an infraction for driving without proof of insurance. 2) You do not have to appear in court for a parking ticket. The ticket will show the amount you are responsible to pay. If you do not think you should have been ticketed, contact the parking agency listed on the ticket. Waiting to pay the ticket will only increase the fine (check ticket for details). Non-payment will not allow you to renew your car’s registration. Finally, if stopped and you do not have your license, you will receive a ticket. If a police officer thinks you are driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, you will be taken into custody immediately.
