A total of 1,630 vehicles passed through the checkpoint, and 206 were screened. One driver was arrested for driving under the influence, and four drivers were cited for driving without a driver’s license.

DUI checkpoint locations are based on reported incidents of impaired driving-related crashes. The primary focus of DUI checkpoints is to promote public safety by taking suspected impaired drivers off roads.
