Freedom: 250 Years and On

If you see someone driving erratic on any road, notify law enforcement immediately.

America’s rich history shines for its 250th birthday on July 4. Events and holidays, like Memorial Day, prepare us. For instance, the Stars, Stripes, and Santa Barbara concert will be on July 1.

When 16 in 1992, my life changed when a drunken driver hit me. Freedom and driving laws are linked to ensure public safety.

In 2024, California made 1,336 DUI arrests during their Fourth of July law enforcement period. They made 1,311 DUI arrests during the same period in 2025.
