If you are going to drive while drunk you may want to avoid the City of Costa Mesa.

Costa Mesa police officers arrested a suspect on Saturday morning, at 9 a.m., after he was involved in a car crash and then fled from the scene.

To make matters worse for the suspect he was driving while under the influence and already had a suspended driver’s license.

Needless to say the suspect is looking at felony charges and will have to ride OCTA buses or use Uber if he wants to get around in the future.
