March 10, 2014 12:46 PM

A drunken-driving checkpoint is scheduled today in Los Banos, the Police Department said in a news release.

“In an effort to reduce the number of persons killed and injured in alcohol-involved crashes, DUI/License checkpoints are conducted to identify offenders and get them off the street, as well as educate the public on the dangers of impaired driving,” Cmdr. Ray Reyna said in the statement.

The checkpoint is scheduled from 7 p.m. Monday to 3 a.m. Tuesday.

Funding for the operation is provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, police said.
