You’re kidding, right? A hispanic drunk driver? No way! I looked all over the internet and couldn’t find anything that said Murguia was busted for DUI. However, I did find one article from Las Vegas. I’m sure it’s an exception to the rule. Here’s what it said:

“Last year, 1,500 DUI’s were handed out in Las Vegas to Spanish speakers. In Mexico, and other Spanish speaking countries, the laws are not as strict for DUI’s and DUI awareness is minimal compared to in America.

A major campaign is underway to help educate the Spanish speaking community on the dangers of drinking and driving, as Metro and NHP are seeing more Spanish speaking drivers under the influence.

“I don’t think they are aware of the laws or understand what we do at the checkpoints — how we run them. They just don’t know,” said Metro Detective Tim Babcock.

Sandra Menjivar moved to Las Vegas from El Salvador 10 years ago. She says in her country, DUI’s are handled differently, “The laws of transportation are different. You drive drunk, you can pay the police and get away. Even if you kill someone, you won’t get in that much trouble.”
