Johannesburg - A hundred and twenty one people were arrested on Saturday night for drunken driving in Johannesburg, metro police said on Sunday.
"The metro police held road blocks on main roads in Randburg, Soweto and Johannesburg CBD," said Chief Superintendent Wayne Minnaar.
"Those who were arrested were taken to alcohol evidence centres where they were breathalysed and individual printouts of their alcohol breath limits were attached to a docket."
They were then taken to police stations and placed in police cells, he said. After about three hours they were released on bail which ranged from R800 to R1 500.
Minnaar said all 121 were expected to appear in court on Monday.
The road blocks were part of the national rolling enforcement plan to stop one million cars a month, he said.
