Sobriety Checkpoint Coming To Seabrook

SEABROOK, NH — The New Hampshire State Police Department has announced that there will be a sobriety checkpoint coming to the seacoast this week. During the week of July 23, 2017, according to a press statement from Lt. John R. Hennessey of Troop A, Hampton and Seabrook Police as well as the Rockingham Sheriffs and state troopers applied for a court petition to host checkpoint. The sobriety checkpoint, he noted, is one of the most effective methods of detecting and apprehending the impaired driver.

“The program, approved by the NH Highway Safety Agency and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, provides federal highway safety funds to support this checkpoint, which will be conducted in Seabrook,” Hennessey said.

A review of records has shown that the use of alcohol by individuals who operate motor vehicles has resulted in an alarming number of deaths and personal injury accidents, he stated.
