Drunk driving is one of America's most-often-committed and deadliest crimes. 16,885 people died in alcohol-related crashes. More than 254,000 were injured - One person every 2 minutes.
That’s Why There’s Checkpoint Strikeforce
- An intensive law enforcement mobilization to get impaired drivers off our roads.
- Stopping over 800,000 drivers last year at sobriety checkpoints and in saturation patrols in the multi-state area of Delaware, The District of Columbia, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia.
- Using checkpoints and patrols when and where drunk driving is most likely to occur.
- Combining high visibility checkpoints and paid advertising to create awareness of enforcement and educate the public about dangers and consequences.
