DETALLES:

Victim of DUI Collision, Taylor Marie Moss, to be Honored at Oxnard DUI/Drivers License Checkpoint Friday Night

Oxnard, CA – The Oxnard Police Department Traffic Unit will conduct a DUI/Drivers License Checkpoint on Friday, May 3rd at an undisclosed location within the city limits between the hours of 6:00 p.m. y 3:00 a.m.

This checkpoint will be held in honor of Taylor Marie Moss, a local teen who was tragically killed by a DUI driver in 2009.

Taylor’s mother, Jacquelyn Moss, dicho, “Taylor was an outgoing, beautiful, smart, funny, and fun-loving 19 year old college student. She had an intrinsic love for children and was studying to become an elementary school teacher with further goals of becoming a counselor for troubled teens. From the age of 16 until her death, Taylor worked at her job helping children to create their own special bears at Build-A-Bear Workshop. Taylor was a wonderful girl who truly embodied what it meant to be a kind, thoughtful, and loving person. Life, for those who loved and cherished Taylor, will never be as colorful or bright and the hole left in our hearts by the actions of the drunk driver who ended her life, will never heal.”

En 2:00 am on November 1^er, 2009, Taylor was driving home from a Halloween party with two of her friends in her car. They were driving northbound on the 101 freeway through Encino when they were struck head-on by a vehicle driving the wrong direction. Taylor tragically lost her life as a direct result of the collision. Her best friend suffered a broken arm and shattered glass in her eyes. Her other passenger sustained a broken clavicle.

La 27 year old intoxicated driver who killed Taylor was sentenced to 18 years in state prison with a mandatory 85% of that time served.

This collision and subsequent tragedy were completely preventable.

As motorists pass through the checkpoint they will see large posters of Taylor Moss and the aftermath of the collision scene that killed her. Drivers will receive a handout containing Taylor’s picture and her story. Some of Taylor’s family and friends will be present at the checkpoint in her honor.

El efecto disuasorio de los puntos de control de DUI es un recurso comprobado para reducir el número de personas muertas y heridas en accidentes relacionados con el alcohol o las drogas.. Research shows that crashes involving alcohol drop by an average of 20 percent when well-publicized checkpoints are conducted often enough.

Los oficiales se pondrán en contacto los conductores que pasan por el punto de control en busca de signos de alcohol y / o deterioro de drogas. Officers will also check drivers for proper licensing and will strive to delay motorists only momentarily. Cuando sea posible, especialmente oficiales entrenados estarán disponibles para evaluar los sospechosos de conductores ebrios con las drogas. Drivers caught driving impaired can expect jail, suspensión de la licencia, and insurance increases, as well as fines, matrícula, clases de DUI, otros gastos que pueden superar $10,000.

En 2010, encima 10,000 people were killed nationally in motor vehicle traffic crashes that involved at least one driver or motorcycle rider with a blood alcohol concentration (LAC) de .08% o mayor. En California, este crimen mortal condujo a 791 deaths because someone failed to designate a sober driver. “The DUI collision that took Taylor’s life and forever stole her from the lives of her friends and family was completely preventable,” said Officer Derek Miller.

Según la Administración Nacional de Seguridad Vial (NHTSA), checkpoints have provided the most effective documented results of any of the DUI enforcement strategies, while also yielding considerable cost savings of $6 para cada $1 gastado. Based on collision statistics and frequency of DUI arrests, DUI Checkpoints are placed in locations that have the greatest opportunity for achieving drunk and drugged driving deterrence. Ubicaciones se eligen con consideraciones de seguridad para los funcionarios y el público.

The Oxnard Police Department will continue to honor victims of DUI related collisions during future checkpoints. The victims’ stories will continue to be told and their voices will continue to be heard. Officer Derek Miller said, “If we can change mindsets and behaviors for one night or for one weekend we have made our roadways safer for all of us.”

Los fondos para este puesto de control se proporciona al Departamento de Policía de Oxnard por una subvención de la Oficina de Seguridad Vial de California, través de la Administración Nacional de Seguridad Vial, reminding everyone to continue to work together to bring an end to these tragedies. The Oxnard Police Department would like to thank Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) and the friends and family of Taylor Marie Moss for their support and participation regarding this checkpoint operation. If you see a Drunk Driver – Call 9-1-1.

FECHA / HORA:	Mayo 1, 2013, starting at about 11:25 a.m
UBICACIÓN:	Escuela secundaria de Oxnard 3400 En. Gonzales Rd.. Oxnard, California 93036

DETALLES:

(OXNARD, California)– Tomorrow, Miércoles mayo 1, 2013, officers from the Oxnard Police Department will be coordinating the Every 15 Minutes (E15M) Program at Oxnard High School (OHS). Unique in its design and powerful in its impact, the E15M Program is an educational experience that reminds us all of the dangers associated with driving while impaired by alcohol and/or other drugs.

“We look for creative and meaningful ways to engage and drive deep-rooted messages to the core of our young individuals,’ said Tenille Chacon who serves as the School Resource Officer at Oxnard High School. “Students are amongst the most creative, and dynamic people in our community, at the same time amongst the most impressionable. Our hope is that this program sparks conversations amongst friends, and reaffirms tenets of responsibility and accountability,” she said.

Every 15 minutes in the U.S., someone is killed in a crash involving an impaired driver. The E15M program includes student participants being removed from their class every 15 minutes throughout the morning by an Oxnard Police Officer who acts as the Grim Reaper. An obituary is read to the class and the student participants later return to class as the “living dead”, complete with white face make-up. From that point on (since the victims are “dead”), they will not speak or otherwise interact with others for the remainder of the day except to be present in their regular classes.

Starting at about 11:25 a.m. en mayo 1, the OHS student body (all Juniors & Seniors) will assemble in the football stadium to witness a mock head-on crash scene and simulated rescue that will include a full emergency response by Oxnard Police, Oxnard Fuego, Gold Coast EMS, Ventura County Medical Examiner’s Office, and McCarty & Sons Towing.

At the end of the school day, instead of returning home, student participants made into the “living dead” or those who were “killed” in the crash, together with several adult chaperones, will be transported to a local hotel for an overnight student retreat, facilitated by a support staff of counselors and police officers. The participants will continue to be out of contact with their family and friends overnight to simulate their separation/death.

The E15M program will continue on May 2, 2013 with a mock “funeral” assembly in the Oxnard High School gym starting at 11:30 a.m. where participants and their parents will share personal and often very emotional letters they wrote to one another the previous evening that begin with “Dear Mom & Dad, Every 15 minutes in the United States, someone is killed in a crash involving an impaired driver. Today I died. I never had a chance to tell you…” This is arguably the most powerful, impactful, and emotional part of the 2- day program. While the crash was staged, the emotions of the funeral assembly are very real!

“This is the first year I have been a part of E15 at OHS,” says Chacon. “The last time OHS participated in E15 was in 2008. The impact I have seen at CIHS at PHS is huge. You see some of the toughest students break down during the retreat after the first day. These students really come to realize what an impact they could have on their parents and loved ones if something was to happen to them. Similarly, I have witnessed students left in the stands crying after our mock funeral and presentation. It hits some of these kids particularly hard because they have had a loved one die or impacted in a significant way due to a drunk driver.”

This powerful no cost educational program, funded by community donations and sponsored by the Oxnard Police Foundation, will challenge teenagers and others to think about the responsibility of making mature decisions when lives are involved.

This year Oxnard High School participants are:

INCIDENTE:	Illegal Vehicle Sales Operation, Arrestar
FECHA / HORA:	4/24/13, 1400 horas
UBICACIÓN:	Downtown Oxnard

PERSONA DE CONTACTO & INFORMACIÓN DE CONTACTO:	Senior Officer Jeff McGreevy (805) 385-8214 JeffreyMcgreevy@Oxnardpd.org

DETALLES:
The Oxnard Police Department conducted a joint operation with the State of California, Department of Motor Vehicles regarding illegal vehicle sales. This operation resulted in the arrest of two men who were selling vehicles that were not registered to them and unlawful dealer activity.

Over the last 2 months The Oxnard Police Department received several complaints from downtown business owners and residents regarding suspected unlawful vehicle sales. In one area there were so many cars parked for sale, no parking was available for customers of the retail spaces. Area merchants noticed the same people moving cars around that were for sale and suspected they were unlawful vehicle dealers. The Oxnard Police Department compiled data over a 6 week period and identified several suspected vehicle dealers unlawfully engaged in vehicle sales on city streets. Several locations were identified due to an unusually high number of cars parked for sale on a daily basis. This activity was an indication that a vehicle dealer may be posing as a private party to sell vehicles to avoid registration fees and taxes. The OPD and DMV used undercover personnel to negotiate vehicle sales with two different men who had multiple cars parked for sale in Oxnard.

Both men had numerous vehicles for sale and admitted that they were selling multiple vehicles. Joaquin Samano had three cars for sale at various street corners. Ernesto Macias had four to six cars parked for sale in downtown. Further investigation revealed Macias was in possession of 10 other vehicle titles and 10 different sets of vehicle keys. Both suspects were arrested and we are continuing to investigate additional leads regarding unlawful vehicle sales in the Oxnard area.

The Oxnard Police Department would like to educate the public and remind you that private parties are allowed to sell their own vehicles but they may not engage in the vehicle sales business without being properly licensed and bonded. If a person buys cars for the purpose of resale they must obtain a vehicle dealer license from the State of California and follow the strict guidelines for licensing and resale. Vehicle sales are tightly regulated by the State of California and it is unlawful for someone to sell a vehicle that is not registered to them without written authority such as a legal power of attorney. The suspects in this case appear to have been “flipping” cars by purchasing a car for one price then reselling or “flipping” it for a profit without being properly licensed.

TERMS, FACTS and TIPS:

Curbstoning is the repeated, unlicensed “flipping” of used cars for profit.
Curbstoners are people who actively and regularly buy and sell vehicles without a license, proper permits or a legally established place of business and who, many times, represent themselves as private sellers in order to attract buyers.

Nuisance: Curbstoners often turn high traffic areas into instant parking lots, lining up cars at gas stations, supermarkets, convenience stores, on private property or even the side of the road. They deprive shoppers of places to park and the inconvenience and unsightliness drives away business.
Fraude: Consumers can easily become victims of fraud involving issues like Odometer Tampering, Undisclosed Frame Damage or Salvage Rebuilt Vehicles, Faulty Safety Devices, Mechanics or Promissory Liens and other problems that may not be truthfully disclosed at the time of sale. A consumer has no recourse!

Criminal: The most common crime committed by Curbstoners is Tax Fraud. When an unsuspecting customer buys a car, the curbstoner will leave the title blank or “open.” Without the curb stoner’s name on the document, they are able to pocket the money (usually cash) and avoid paying State Sales Tax, Federal Income Tax and any other declarations that are legally required.

PROTECT YOUSELF!

Be suspicious of cars and vehicles suddenly parked in undesignated areas.
Monitor free advertising sites, like Craigslist, for cases in which the same contact phone number appears on various private-party listings.
Compare contact information on ‘For Sale’ signs to see if it is the same.
Verify the name on the Certificate of Ownership (título) matches the seller’s name.
Steer away from sellers who accept only cash and refuse checks or money orders.
A curbstoner will not let you have the vehicle independently inspected or provide maintenance records that match the car.
A curbstoner will not allow you to conduct a CarFax report because it will detail if the vehicle was sold at auction.

Citizens are reminded that anyone with information about this activity is encouraged to call the Oxnard Police Department (805) 385-7600. Si desea permanecer en el anonimato, puede llamar a Ventura County Crime Stoppers al (800) 222-8477.
