In Twentynine Palms, San Bernardino County, California, the San Bernardino County Sheriff Department will be out on Friday, November 13, 2026, from 4:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m., looking for drivers suspected of driving under the influence. The department Morongo Basin station released the patrol plan on November 9.

Deputy C. Torres said impaired driving is preventable, and is a choice. If you have been drinking or taken drugs that impair, the release said, make the right choice by finding a sober driver or alternate transportation.

The department reminds the public that impaired driving is not just from alcohol. Some prescription medications and over the counter drugs may interfere with driving, and drivers should follow directions for use and read warning labels about driving. While medicinal and recreational marijuana are legal, driving under the influence of marijuana is illegal.

Drivers caught driving impaired and charged with a first time DUI face an average of 13,500 dollars in fines and penalties, as well as a suspended license. Funding for this program was provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety, through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.
