BUCKS COUNTY, PA — The Pennsylvania State Police Troop M has scheduled a DUI checkpoint to be conducted between Friday and Sunday.
The goal of a sobriety checkpoint is to reduce the number of alcohol- and drug-related fatal and serious crashes, and to reduce the number of DUI drivers on Pennsylvania’s highways.
State Police did not state where the checkpoint will take place.
The sobriety checkpoint is a traffic safety checkpoint wherein Troopers systematically stop vehicles at selected locations to briefly observe drivers for articulable facts and/or behaviors normally associated with alcohol or drug impairment.
"The Pennsylvania State Police is committed to maintaining a safe environment for the motoring public. This sobriety checkpoint is intended to achieve this goal," the State Police said in a release announcing the checkpoint.
