Law enforcement activity across San Bernardino County has been high this month.

This past week alone: a multi-agency traffic operation in Apple Valley issued 101 citations and towed 9 vehicles in a single day, and a Victorville man was arrested for felony DUI after a crash left a victim seriously injured in Hesperia.

Felony DUI charges — which apply when a crash causes serious injury — carry much more severe consequences than a standard DUI, including potential prison time and mandatory extended program requirements.

If you've been cited or arrested for DUI in the Barstow area and have court or DMV requirements to meet, don't wait to get enrolled. Jackson-Bibby is here to help you get started.

Court-ordered DUI program and worried about your job? Here's what most people don't know going in.

In most cases, you are not legally required to tell your employer about a DUI. And with the right class schedule, most people complete their program without it disrupting their work life.

But it takes planning — especially in Barstow, where many residents work in trucking, logistics, mining, or other industries with irregular or demanding schedules.

🔹 CDL holders: your employment situation is more complex. Talk to a DUI attorney before discussing anything with your employer
🔹 If overtime or shift work makes attendance unpredictable, tell us at intake — we'll build a schedule around your real availability
🔹 If your job takes you out of the area for extended periods, a leave of absence from the program is possible with documentation
🔹 Virtual class options are available for qualifying clients

We just published a full guide covering all of this — including how to handle the employer conversation, what to do if you miss a class, and how to stay on track from start to finish.

One of the most common mistakes after a DUI conviction: enrolling in the wrong program.

California has five DUI program types — and if you enroll in a shorter one than what your court or DMV ordered, your completion won't be accepted. You'll have to start over.

✅ Wet Reckless (AB508) — 12 hours
✅ 3-Month First Offender (AB541)
✅ 6-Month First Offender (AB762)
✅ 9-Month First Offender (AB1353)
✅ 18-Month Multiple Offender (SB38)

Which one you need depends on your BAC, your offense history, and what your court or DMV paperwork specifically orders. We just published a guide that walks through each program in plain language.

Not sure which one applies to you? Call us before enrolling — we'll help you confirm the right program from the start.
