           TRUCKEE, Calif. -Call it drunken driving deja vu (记忆幻觉).For the second time in five months, a 23-year-old California woman has been arrested after she crashed her car while driving under the influence (DUI) at the exact same spot north of Lake Tahoe.

      And to top it off, Truckee Police say that in both cases, her blood alcohol content was more than three times the legal limit.

     The police say Melissa Dennison of Truckee crashed at about noon on Sunday on Glenshire Drive just south of the Glenshire Bridge. They say she was extremely drunk and had trouble standing or walking.  Her blood alcohol level initially was measured at .346.The legal limit is .08.

    Sergeant J. Litchie said Dennison also had been charged with a DUI in January when she crashed at the same spot and registered a blood alcohol level of .380.If found guilty of the second offense, she faces up to 10 years in prison and fines in excess of $2,000.

      A telephone message the Associated Press left at a listing for Dennison in Truckee on Tuesday was not immediately returned.
