Drunken and drugged driving arrests during a countywide holiday crackdown totaled 2,268 through midnight Wednesday, up from 2,168 last year during the same time period, officials said.
The crackdown by officers with the Avoid the 100 law enforcement task force started Dec. 13 and ran through New Year's Day in Los Angeles County. The figures are provisional.
The campaign by 100 law enforcement agencies countywide included checkpoints and "roving DUI saturation patrols."
