CHP Says Maximum Enforcement Period Starts Tonight

Facebook post from CHP-Crescent City:

The California Highway Patrol (CHP) will deploy a statewide Maximum Enforcement Period (MEP) focused on impaired driving from 6 p.m. Saturday, June 20, through 6 a.m. Sunday, June 21. There will be a high presence of uniformed CHP personnel in all ranks. Weekend nights and early mornings remain among the most dangerous times for impaired-driving crashes. Increased summer travel, social gatherings, and celebrations can further heighten the risk. Although our focus is on impaired drivers, we will continue to enforce all vehicle code violations in an effort to stop preventable crashes from occurring.
