Riverside Police Department's Traffic Bureau consists of dedicated professional police officers and civilian personnel committed to providing the highest quality of service and protection to the community. City of Riverside DUI Enforcement are programs designed to draw upon the talents of officers of the Riverside Police Department, media advocacy, and community coalitions to work towards the common goal of reducing the number of people driving vehicles under the influence of alcohol, other drugs, or while drowsy. We will do this by educating the public on the dangers of drinking and driving, driving under the influence of other drugs, and driving when drowsy. We will conduct active enforcement campaigns county wide and follow through to ensure prosecution of offenders. We do this to make the roadways in Riverside safer for our loved ones and everyone else who drives a vehicle responsibly. RIVERSIDE POLICE DEPARTMENT'S SOCIAL MEDIA TERMS OF USE
