Las Cruces Woman, 46, Booked on Careless Driving Charge on Interstate 10

Allegedly... Cristi Poston, a 46-year-old resident of Las Cruces, was booked into the Doña Ana County Detention Center on June 5, 2026. Records indicate she was taken into custody under booking number 2600004596. Poston faces a misdemeanor charge of careless driving following an incident at mile marker 136 on Interstate 10. She is currently being held without bond. The arrest location on a major interstate suggests the incident occurred within the jurisdiction of highway patrol or county traffic enforcement. A no-bond status at the time of intake often indicates that the individual is awaiting a preliminary appearance before a magistrate or judge to determine conditions of release. Careless driving is a classification used for operating a vehicle in a manner that disregards the safety of others or property. The charges are allegations, and Poston is presumed innocent unless and until a court finds otherwise.
